With the help of our community members and partners (Hooper Fund, White Mountains, Manchester Cultural Council, and the Manchester Essex Rotary Club), we were able to to raise approximately $30,000. This money directly helped our school’s Performing Arts programs. Some examples of our support includes:

• Purchased sound board and tech equipment for MS/HS auditorium

• Donations for rock band

• Partially funded Jazz music program

• Partially funded Composer’s Program for several years

• Purchased ukulele instruments for grade 3 music

• Delivered mini grants to teachers:

  • AP Spanish trip to NYC to see musical theatre

  • Keyboards for individual students

  • Provided tickets to Romeo & Juliet for entire grade 9

• Set & costumes funds for HS Musical and Drama Fest

• Funds for first National Music Honor Society open mic night

• Annual Performing Arts in the Park event

Future funding is needed to support:

• National Music Honor Society

• First ever NYC trip with the National Music Honor Society

• Sound equipment

• Drama Fest

• High School musical

• Teacher mini grants
