EWS Gifts Shearn Elementary Students Musical Instruments

Since the beginning of the school year, Emery/Weiner School instrumental music teachers Kelly Dean and Josh Sheiman pioneered an after-school music program for fifth-grade students at Shearn Elementary. The HISD school is EWS’ friendly neighbor, just north on Stella Link Road.

This year’s 13-student cohort completed the remarkable inaugural program by earning level-one certification on the piano, bass, guitar and drums. In addition, at a special party honoring them, each student was gifted their favorite instrument to take home. Thanks to the generosity of Matthew Mullenweg for donating the instruments, EWS student volunteers and Shearn faculty and administrators also were instrumental in the program’s success.
