ROCHESTER - Rochester Schools Superintendent Michael L. Hopkins announced on Thursday that Rochester schools have partnered with McDonald's to raise money for the city's youngest musicians.

The Napoli Group, which owns the McDonald's at 291 North Main St., will donate 10 percent of the proceeds from its sales on June 8-10 to the Rochester's elementary school band program. The fund-raiser is part of an ongoing celebration of the restaurant's recent renovation.

"We are very appreciative of the Napoli Group and our local McDonald's, as they continually support our students," Assistant Superintendent Kyle Repucci said. "It is wonderful to have such an amazing partner in our city."

The proceeds of the fundraiser will be used to invest in the loaner instruments that the schools make available to students who wouldn't otherwise be able to afford one of their own. This summer, the money raised will be used to clean, sterilize and repair the loaners so they can be reassigned to students in the fall.

"We are so grateful for this generous donation so that we can provide instruments for all of our well deserving Rochester students," Director of Music Joanne Houston said.
