Program accomplishments
- Napa Valley Education Foundation - The Music Connection continues to be a primary program for NOTES providing low-cost rental to students to use during their academic year music lessons. NOTES purchased instruments for their rental program and also supported summer school camps.Expenses $156,242 · grants $144,518
- Napa Valley Youth Symphony - participating in a Youth Symphony is a pinacle of achievement for students. The regular Youth Symphony provides the students with advance lessons and instructions but these students have often had the opportunity for lessons as they grew up. Many talented students never get that opportunity so NOTES partnered with the NVYS to create the NOTES program which takes beginner music students with an interest in symphony and provides them with instruction. These students can participare until 7 grade at which time they must transition to the Youth Symphony.Expenses $65,000 · grants $65,000
- Mayacamus Charter Middle School - supporting the creating of music programs is core to our mission. At Mayacamus, we purchased guitars, amplifiers, drums and microphones for the classroom.Expenses $21,285 · grants $21,285
