MAP Information - Project on-going
The FHS Alumni Organization received a grant from the J.L. Bedsole Foundation for the Pirate MAP (Music Appreciation Program) in the amount of $8,500. The Grant funds were used to purchase 200 plastic musical recorders, carrying bag and instruction books to introduce and teach elementary students music fundamentals.
We were also able to use funds to purchase a new keyboard and percussion equipment and music stands.
This summer the FHS Band had a special guest conductor/instructor for band camp, Mr. Shane "Mr. D" Dickerson. Mr. D spent an entire day working with the students on musical direction, marching fundamentals, and team building.
