Mauriceville Middle School Band Hall received approximately 18 inches of water due to Hurricane Harvey. We lost all of our low woodwind instruments, percussion equipment, instrument bins and tuba racks. Our music stands rusted and corroded due to the moisture in the air and are no longer usable. 3/4 of our music library was covered in mold and could not be saved. We are literally starting from scratch and would deeply appreciated any assistance.

My students need help getting instruments for band class. Tanglewood Middle School (formerly named Grady Middle School) is a Title 1 school located in the Galleria area of Houston. Hurricane Harvey magnified the financial challenges that many of my students' families already faced. Many of my students' parents experienced a loss of wages as well as personal property loss. Tanglewood Middle School has a limited inventory of school owned instruments for students to borrow, but not enough for everyone with a need. The need for school owned instruments is far greater than what it has been in the past. We are in need of additional flutes, clarinets, trumpets, french horns, and trombones.

Our needs are vast. We lost our band hall and auditorium with much damage to many instruments, lots of percussion equipment, all student music materials, and uniform parts. Below is a lengthy list. I am including our 6th grade materials in this list because they travel to our campus for band, and the instruments are shared between all levels. A separate request is available for our 5th grade elementary needs. Due to the urgency of providing instruments for our students, our instruments have already been sent in for repair or replacement, so those issues will be incurring significant monetary needs.

Sullivan Middle School is a Title 1 school located in the Southeast (Pasadena) area of Houston. Our neighborhoods border the Vince Bayou and the hurricane magnified the financial challenges that many of my students' families already faced. Many of my students' parents experienced a loss of wages as well as personal property loss. Many of the families lost their only mode of transportation and money is very tight for them.

Our goal is to find a way to keep 100% of our students in band. My beginning band students need help getting instruments for band class. Sullivan Middle School has a limited inventory of school owned instruments for students to borrow, but not enough for everyone with a need. The need for school owned instruments is far greater than what it has been in the past.

Reeds for Clarinet (size 2.5 and 3)
Reeds for Saxophone (size 2.5 and 3)

Many of our students' method books were damaged by flood water in their homes. Any copies of the "Standard of Excellence - Book 1" would help our students. We have students on all instruments who are trying to share in class.

Our school received a wonderful donation of backpacks for our students but many students do not have basic supplies to put in it, such as:

We are an intermediate school in a Title 1 school district. Our program is in dire need of several instruments and accessories due to the impact of Hurricane Harvey. Several students are no longer able to rent an instrument from the local music store because of hardships they or their parents have faced at home. Because students are unable to afford renting an instrument, we have had to assign students to school-owned instruments and percussion. We have two and three students sharing our school-owned instruments, and unfortunately, our inventory is small for an intermediate school. Our most desperate needs are the following: MOUTHPIECES: for ALL brass instruments, especially trombone and tuba. ACCESSORIES: reeds for Bb clarinet (size 2 1/2 and 3), reeds for alto saxophone (size 2 1/2 and 3), EQUIPMENT: snare drum sticks for beginners (SD1 general). We could also use percussion bell kits (with practice pads). Thank you!

Equipment - We lost all of our storage spaces due to the flood waters from Hurricane Harvey. As such, we currently have no place to store supplies, accessories, music and student instruments. We could use storage options such as:

Sterilite Drawers and Towers for reeds/mouthpieces/oils/greases.
Sterilite Crates for student binder storage
Sterilite Shelving Units for music and instrument storage

Our classrooms are also now mobile, so we could use a rolling cart to storage classroom supplies and teacher materials such as:

Husky 27" 4 Drawer Tool Cabinet

Music - All of our UIL Sightreading music and much of our beginning band music was stored on shelves that were under the water line.

Know losses:
2006 - 2016 UIL Grade 1 Sightreading
2006 - 2016 UIL Grade 2 Sightreading
2006 - 2016 UIL Grade 3 Sightreading

Unknown losses:
Much of our grade 1/2 (first 6 notes/simple rhythm) beginning band music was thrown out before we could enter the building. The rest of our music library was stored in boxes. As such, as can not be exactly sure what survived. We are interested in all grade 1/2" pieces.

Instructional Materials - We lost a full classroom set (70) of 8.5" x 11" self-portrait mirrors used for student self-evaluation.

Performance Attire - All of our extra uniform sets were submerged. Our uniform consists of:

White Tuxedo Shirt
Black Tuxedo Pants
Black Bow-tie

Our community suffered great losses during the floods that followed the hurricane. Many houses have been condemned, while others will require complete rehab before families can move back in. As such, we anticipate that many families will be unable to provide their students will band supplies or instruments.

Instruments - We will be in need of quality used/refurbished/new flutes, clarinets, alto saxophones, trumpets and trombones. We could also use mouthpieces for horn, euphoniums and tubas. Bell kits and practice pads will also be needed.

School Supplies -
Every band student will need:

As a result of the flooding from Harvey, our nearly one year old band hall had over 8 inches of standing water for over a week before we could get into the campus. Anything wooden, or cloth lined like our school owned instrument cases, was effected by airborne mold. Our wooden clarinets were destroyed by the mold. Some of the instruments attacked by the airborne mold were salvageable, but the cases were not. Thankfully, we recently had trombone and French horn cases donated to our program. Many families in our community lost their homes, belongings and vehicles, leaving some of our beginning band parents unable to afford instruments for their children. The list below are items that we need desperately to supply our band students with necessary equipment and supplies to remain a part of our
program.

Bass clarinet mouthpieces

Deweyville is a small 2A school where a large number of our students are economically disadvantaged. Most of our community lost their homes from the 2016 Sabine River flood and were finishing the rebuild or still living in FEMA trailers when Hurricane Harvey flooded the town once again. We have a large number of students interested in band and over 75% currently play on a school provided instrument. We are in need of reeds, valve oil and slide oil so students can participate without the financial burden of this expense. Our instruments were saved from flooding however the humidity after the storm has ruined some cases.

Holland Middle School is an inner-city school just 7 miles from downtown Houston with over 170 in the band program. Our campus was damaged by the waters but luckily, the band hall, our equipment and most of the campus was spared extensive damage. Unfortunately, the community was hit hard. Funds are going to be especially tight this year and under the current circumstances, asking the community to help is not going to be an option. Some of our kids are sharing instruments because we are short. We could use the following additional instruments: 6 flutes, 5 clarinets and 5 trumpets.
We are hurting for supplies. Van Doren reeds: clarinet 3s (20 boxes) and 4s (20 boxes), alto saxophone 3s (10 boxes), tenor saxophone 3s (5 boxes), baritone saxophone 3s (5 boxes), Oboe reeds, 20 clarinet cotton swabs, cork grease, reed guards, (10) medium xylophone mallets, (10) bell mallets, valve oil, 1” binders.

Park View Intermediate is a 7th/8th grade campus in a Title 1 district. We have 130 band students, including 3 performing bands and a beginner band class. Many of our students suffered damages to homes and property, and although we were lucky enough to not lose instruments, the extra financial burden to the families is difficult. Beginner band students who were planning to buy/rent instruments now find it difficult to set aside that money in their budget. We would truly appreciate help in providing the basic supplies and accessories below to get the year started for all our band students.

Accessories:
Clarinet Reeds - 4 boxes Vandoren strength 2 1/2
Clarinet Reeds - 8 boxes Vandoren strength 3
Saxophone Reeds - 5 boxes Vandoren strength 3
Valve Oil - 10 bottles
Trombone slide sprayer bottles - 6

Method Books:
Standard of Excellence, by Pearson (Book 1) for the following instruments:
- Flute (4)

We have a student whose trumpet was destroyed in the flood. While we have some instruments for students to use who are not financially capable of affording their own instrument, we have ran out of trumpets. He moved in two weeks after school started and all the trumpets we have available have been assigned.

After Harvey calmed down to just a depression I was able to get out of my flooded apartment complex, driving threw several feet of water in my now totaled 2015 Xterra high water truck, and reach my campus. As I passed by neighborhood after neighborhood, 95% of it was under water, however when I reached my campus the budding was saved but the water line was only inches away from entry.
This is a new band program that started in January 2015 with only 35 students, it has now grown to healthy enrollment of almost 150 enrolled. The first two years the band spent money on tubas, baritones and other instruments. The students purchase their own horns and in doing so 90% of them purchase college level horns.
Our plan was to purchase concert percussion for our contest this year. We have 1000 students at our campus and over 100 of them, plus many staff members (the band director), lost everything. Around 10 band students need help replacing their supplies while the school directly distributes financial and many other types of aid to those harmed. I had several students that they literally only had to grab a few things and many of them said that included their horn. Wow, I was lucky that I left my horns at school or I would have been saying the exact same thing.
With all the efforts to rebuild our budget has become reduced to it bare essentials, leaving no room for repair of the molded piano to zero money for concert percussion. We are starting our first experience in a contest with Director Choice in April with no concert Bass Drum or mallet instrument much less a tympani. We lost our concert piano to mold and mildew.
Our goal is to prepare for UIL next year for the first time in the history of any of our campuses, but that is highly unlike without donations of used instruments to financially assisting to acquire need supplies and sanitize the current inventory.
