Solo & Ensemble Volunteers Needed!


The music department is hosting the IHSA Solo & Ensemble Contest on Saturday March 8th and are in need of over 100 volunteers.  This is our department's biggest fundraiser and the money is used towards shared equipment needs (ie music stands, uniforms, contest entry fees, etc.). We will run over a thousand people through our building that day from dozens of schools and need your help to make sure the day runs smoothly.  Jobs are not difficult and most require only a few hours of time.  Accommodations can be made to ensure that you can hear your student perform.  Thanks in advance!

Saturday Mar. 8 MORNING Shifts (students & parents)

Saturday Mar. 8 AFTERNOON Shifts (students & parents)
