Project: Sing! is CCSA’s neighborhood-based satellite program that gives area children the opportunity to sing, learn, share and excel – right in their own back yard. Project Sing:Harlandale is now in its fourth season and provides a tuition-free program to over 30 students from Harlandale ISD. Singers represent eleven schools spanning grades 3-6 and receive the same level of curriculum and instruction as CCSA’s core programs. The Project: Sing! closing concert is an opportunity for families and the public to see first-hand the achievements and rewarding experiences that come with participation in music!

Harlandale ISD partners with CCSA presents this program by providing facilities and resource support through their Curriculum Department. CCSA is grateful to the City of San Antonio Office of Cultural Affairs, the George W. Brackenridge Foundation and the San Antonio Area Foundation, among others, for their support of PS:Harlandale.
