1) providing support to the staff and students.
2) raising supplementary funds to benefit the Music Department.
3) providing scholarships for music students.

Membership – No dues!

All parents/guardians of EWHS music students are members by virtue of their student’s participation in the music program.

Parent participation enables our Music Teachers to do what they do best… spend their time working directly with our music students. Please consider attending Music Boosters meetings and volunteering.
