Job Description
We are looking for small group instructors who have a passion for instrumental music and working with the children in our schools.
"b" Instrumental is a program supported by the FWCS Foundation.
The benefits of music education are well documented. With access to music during their formative years, students are more likely to excel and thrive. With b Instrumental, we’re working to make these benefits available to all students.
In addition to providing instruments, b Instrumental helps send students to summer music camps and provides small group instructors that boost the impact of music programs.
Thanks to b Instrumental, students are given the opportunity to pick up an instrument for the first time, develop the discipline that comes with regular practice, and experience the joy and self-esteem that comes with accomplishment.
Music—the gift that gives back.
Research shows that investments in music education provide students with measurable benefits:
Improved memory and well-being
Higher self-esteem
Increased math proficiency by grade 12
An average increase of 63 points in verbal & 44 points in math on SAT tests
Higher graduation rates
