Making Music at Mayes Elementary
Thanks to the generosity of the Thelma Braun and Smith Foundations and Amy Jordan’s musical students at Denison High School, all seven DISD elementary schools are enjoying a high-energy production of the Disney classic 101 Dalmatians.
The cast of 101 Dalmatians combines the high school musical troupe as well as several dozen students from each elementary school. Jordan and her students spend one week, approximately 30 minutes per day, putting the production together. It lasts approximately 25 minutes … just long enough for students, teachers, principals, parents and actors to get hooked on the idea of a regular music program at the elementary level.
“This has been just a really huge success…these kids are awesome, and so excited and involved in the musical process,” said Theatre Director Amy Jordan. “We’re almost where we need to be from a funding standpoint to put a part-time music pilot in place this spring in all the elementary schools. Everyone is so excited. The Braun Foundation, Regensburger Foundation and the district have each pledged several thousand to the proposed program. We’re hopeful that a couple more foundations will also kick in money. When that happens, we’ll be off and running.”
