We are currently in need of parents that are willing to volunteer their time to help our program. Here are the immediate needs:
1) Music needs to be copied
2) We have many events that need to be organized
3) We have many trips that need chaperones
These are just some of the things that we need help with. Please e-mail me if you are interested so you can attend a meeting to get information. You can e-mail me at luis.piccinelli@browardschools.com.
We would not have much of a music program if it weren’t for the parent volunteers. Please help us in anyway that you can!

Dear Parents,
I would like to take this opportunity to welcome everyone back. Hopefully you all had a very safe and relaxing break. Now it is time to get back into the swing of things. As you can see by looking at our new calendar, I have been doing a lot of planning over the Winter Break. Everytime I look at our calendar I find myself getting very excited about the rest of this school year. I hope that everyone feels the same way! Please make sure you always check our website for any changes. All dates on our new calendar are subject to change.
