The FMS Music Boosters is an organization of middle school parents who support the vocal, band and orchestra programs at Ferndale Middle School.
The Boosters serve many functions. If you have a student in the FMS music program (band, orchestra, choir) then you are already a booster by supporting your student in their vocal and/or instrumental efforts.
One of the primary functions of the Boosters is to raise funds to support the middle school music programs. While the school district handles teacher salaries and other operational expenses, the Boosters help with a lot of items the district doesn't cover. Over the past couple years, the Boosters have raised money for:
- sheet music
- private lessons
- solo and ensemble fees
- miscellaneous equipment (mouthpieces, bows ...)
The Boosters also provide 'people-power' at concerts, festivals, and other events by chaperoning, ushering, and helping with setup and cleanup.
We'd love to have your assistance, whether it be in the form of a donation of time, a donation of money or�better yet�by participating in one of our FMS Music Booster meetings. The Boosters meet the 2nd Monday of each month, during the school year. See the events list below for exact times and locations.
