THE BOARD:

We need EVERYONE to continue to write to our Board Members regarding their decision to cut this program!  Four years ago, the Elementary Band and Orchestra Program was eliminated and the main reason it was reinstated was the overwhelming response to this action by parents.  If enough parents, children, businesses, and community groups continue to email our Board, they cannot ignore us! Please take the time to email our Board regularly with your dissatisfaction and disappointment in their decision!

Please do so NOW. See page #3 of this website for email addresses for all Board Members.
