Columbia Heights High School Band Space Needs The High School band classroom will not meet the future needs of the expanding program • The numbers of students in the band has been growing over the last 10yrs. • The district received several grants from VH1 save the music foundation • The district invested in additional staff and resources • The district has received smaller grants from the city of Columbia Heights activity fund to support band students • These grants and investments continue to strengthen and grow the band programing at Columbia Heights Schools • The current space has lower ceilings resulting in poor acoustics and potential safety hazards. • The current individual practice spaces need upgrading
Columbia Heights High School Band Space Needs After a walkthrough of the building by staff and consulting engineers, we are unable to find a space large enough to accommodate the expanding band program
Columbia Heights High School New Band Space • Separate practice spaces • Instrument repair and cleaning room • Sufficient instrument storage • Furnishings (chairs, risers, podium, etc..) • Additional natural lighting • Improved acoustics
