Just Because Donates Keyboards
Just Because Donates Keyboards

Karen Caspersen and Just Because generously donated 30 keyboards to the SCPS music departments. These portable and rechargeable keyboards will benefit students across the division as more are delivered and distributed to our schools. Their touch sensitive capabilities will allow for more expressive and dynamic musical performances, and the fact that they don't have to be plugged in to play will make it much easier for our music teachers to arrange their classrooms for students to learn and play.
