Parent Info / Booster Meetings:
Second Tuesday from 6 to 7pm @ MVHS in the orchestra/band room (New Main 101)   

Getting involved in the Orchestra/Band program will give you the opportunity to share with your child the last four years of their education, these years fly by. Your child might say they rather not have you around, but most parents actually learn they appreciate your involvement. The Orchestra/Band parents are needed to support the director, and help with the details of fundraising, transporting, feeding and running an organization this size. The orchestra and band needs parents to be able to function; it is for this reason that we urge you to get involved. Join one of the many committees; we need your help. Grandparents, siblings, or any member of your family can get involved and make a difference. The Orchestra/Band Booster group is a great way to meet the parents and the kids your student will be spending much of their time with for the next few months.
