CCEF grant buys hand bells for choir program
We would like to thank the Culver City Education Foundation (CCEF) for a generous grant to purchase a three-octave melody chime set for our hand bell choir program. This will greatly improve the musical training and the performance capabilities of our growing hand bell choir.
The ASCAP Foundation
American Society of Composers and Performers (ASCAP) has awarded a $2,000 grant to support CCUSD's 2nd grade Artists in Schools music residency program, created and presented by the Symphonic Jazz Orchestra (SJO). Comprised of four 7-week teaching blocks and a culminating assembly that includes the premiere of a new work composed by the students, the Artists in Schools program transforms students from music appreciators to music creators.
CCEF secures two grants to support our music programs. Fineshriber Family Foundation
The Fineshriber Family Foundation is granting $26,062 toward elementary music programs in CCUSD this school year. This generous donation will provide all the necessary funds for four instrumental workshops for third graders at each of the five elementary schools, focusing on the string, woodwind, percussion and brass family. The grant funds will also fund over half of the second grade music program, which includes 28 weeks of music lesson plans at the elementary schools along with a culminating assembly of student-created music.
Free GrowingGreat Parent Workshop
GrowingGreat Parent Workshop will focus on healthy choices for lunch and snacks. Mark your calendars for the next FREE workshop on Tuesday February 7th at 7 p.m. at Linwood E. Howe Elementary School Cafetorium. Attendees will receive nutrition information and new recipes for dinner time ideas. And, of course, parents can sample lots of free, tasty snacks.

Culver City Education Foundation (CCEF) and GrowingGreat are happy to support these FREE parent workshops.
