Thurston has such amazing families! In 2015, I decided that I wanted to teach ukulele to the Thurston students. After speaking with Ms. York, I started a GoFundMe page. Whatever money was not raised by Thurston families was going to be covered by the PTO. Thanks to many generous Thurston families, friends, and community members, it only took 4 days for the 30 ukuleles I wanted to be completely funded!!! Thurston owns 30 Kala KA-15S Soprano Ukuleles. At this point, grades 2 through 5 learn to play the ukulele. The younger students have also played a bit--A few times in some of the younger classes, I let them strum the strings while I change chords.
