The Centerburg Music Boosters are looking for a couple of parents to volunteer for the program as officers. If you would like to learn more please message the boosters or speak with one of our Music Teachers. The Boosters are a well oiled machine and you will not be thrown in with no guidance. A few officers are returning, but we do have some that are stepping down. Our program relies on the boosters to provide support and funding for every music student k-12. . The meetings are once a month for an hour and the officers help to organize fundraising, volunteers, and advocating for the music department. Please consider volunteering Thank you!!!

We need some volunteers for our upcoming mattress fundraiser! We need students to hold signs and draw attention to the event in front of the school and in town on the day of the event. We also need some parents to help supervise these students.  Please click here to  sign up for a time slot to come out and volunteer.  We are looking forward to the event this weekend. Keep handing out flyers and stop by the school for a sign to post in your yard to advertise the event.
