Teaching and learning took on a whole new life through the inaugural summer music program with LAUSD. About 1,000 students participated in a six-week summer music enrichment program with free Fender Play subscriptions and instruments. The students learned to play their free guitar, bass or ukulele via zoom and LAUSD teachers.
A long list of people donated their time to create an online summer commencement event that led to capping enrollment in less than 2 hours for the fall program. Notable musicians sent in performances for the commencement. Kids of Immigrants, a streetwear brand in Los Angeles, created special merch for the kids. Posters were letterpressed and designed by famed LA designer, Brian Roettinger, along with the design for the commencement film.
