Reedley High’s Band Gets a Boost
Thanks to the generosity of the Rogers Endowment for the Arts, Reedley High School’s band program has received brand-new sousaphones, giving students the tools they need to create richer, fuller sounds. The new instruments enhance every performance, allowing students to explore their musical talents more fully while building confidence, discipline, and teamwork.
The endowment’s support ensures that young musicians have access to quality instruments that might otherwise be out of reach. By investing in the school’s band program, the Rogers Endowment helps foster a vibrant arts community and supports the next generation of artists as they develop their skills, inspire their peers, and share their music with the wider community. This contribution is a powerful example of how community support can transform student experiences, providing resources that encourage creativity, excellence, and a lifelong love of music.
