Money Train is taught by Rockstar educator Dan Frey, Assistant Director of EDU at HSRA.
Money Train is a unique language arts class where students develop and strengthen their creative writing skills, while learning about language and the history of music and words. The students work in a real audio engineering setting, making their own beats, and writing lyrics based on a subject assigned by Dan Frey. The students then record their collaborative creations. releasing as Soundcloud or Youtube singles. Students earn humanities credit towards graduation.
