What schools are saying

Teachers, students, and partners share the impact of JazzTales

“I loved the way the interactive parts included the children and reinforced the idea that we need to work together.” - Olivia W. (University adjunct)

“I think it was really engaging. I’ve seen 100 assemblies and this was one that you saw every kid just lined up and ready to listen. They were connected the whole time.”- Lockhart Elementary school

“It was like an animation of music where you had the chance to see and hear how a story is told through the eyes of a musician. Because not only are they playing it but you’re also feeling how they want to portray what a story is telling.” - Deborah C. Knightdale

“I loved it, it was awesome. Super engaging, the kids were totally into it. I was dancing along, it was awesome. And the story was great as well.” Campbell University student

“I think this is a great experience for elementary kids to get professional and semiprofessional musicians to come in and hear a real author.” - Diana S. Greenwood Elementary

“I would say JazzTales is an excellent example of the union between literacy and reading comprehension for kids and music in their education.” Campbell University student

“The best emoji for JazzTales is the love emoji cause we love JazzTales and the heart emoji and the music emoji.”- Knightdale student
