From Donation to Impact: How New Instruments Provided New Opportunities | USD 364 FOUNDATION

The power of community is on full display at Marysville High School as the USD 364 Foundation continues to invest in the future of our students.

Thanks to their generous support, the MHS Music Department has added electric guitars, bass guitars, a banjo, and new amplifiers—opening the door to new sounds, new skills, and new opportunities for student musicians.

In this video, hear directly from Director of Bands, Blake Nations, and student Lily Shelburne as they share how these instruments are already making an impact. From expanding musical creativity to increasing student engagement, this investment is helping shape the next generation of performers and leaders.

This is more than just new equipment—it’s about giving students the tools to explore their passions, build confidence, and create something meaningful.

👏 A heartfelt thank you to the USD 364 Foundation for their continued commitment to our community, schools, education and the arts.
