Hello Supporters of Music Education and Music Lovers,

BACKGROUND:

Our names are Elyse Mahfouz and Ciana Whitfield. We are the music directors and one part of a dedicated team building an excellent new music program from the ground up at Parkside Middle School in San Bruno, CA.  We currently have nearly 400 students in our music program (Concert Band, String Orchestra, Choir, Guitar, Ukulele, Jazz Band, Rock Band, Quartet, and Elementary Music) in a school of about 850 6th, 7th, and 8th graders.  Our hearts are fully immersed in creating the best experience for our students and we are reaching out to you in order to collaborate for a network of success, learning, and enjoyment for life-long lessons.

THE MISSION:

To provide a well-rounded music/education that instills lifelong lessons and joy.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

Our flourishing music program has a core of excellence that is in dire need of community and general assistance. We nearly doubled in size in under a year and are working with minimal resources due to this positive issue that brings waves of change. We have pending important needs and are desperately looking for help in order to give our children, future leaders, and artists the music education they deserve.

Please know that the Parkside Music Boosters and music family, Parkside Middle School, SBPSD District Office/Board, and all supporting groups and community members have been doing everything in their power to assist us and we are now asking for your help.

Parkside Music Department thanks you very much for your kind time, support, and help.

Sincerely,

Ciana Whitfield
Concert Band and Choir Director
