Fundraiser participation
There are various ways we ask each family to help with the costs of producing our shows. The theater program is a self-funded program and needs every participant to help raise funds. There are several ways we ask for participation. Every family is expected to raise a minimum of $50 per student for the musical, and $40 per student for Night of Comedy and $40 per student for MIFA in one or all of three ways 1) the bottle drive 2) patron sponsorship 3) playbill advertising. We will also be asking for families to donate concession items to sell at the performances as well as assistance at each performance selling tickets and concessions; a sign up genius will be emailed out.

Boosters- All parents of theater participants are booster’s, help where you can. We are looking for parents to join the board for the upcoming year, time commitment is minimal but we do expect board members to be available to assist with each of our program's events even if your student isn't directly involved.
We meet on average four times during the school year to plan each event and we communicate through e-mail throughout the school year for decisions that don't require face to face interaction.
Parent positions open and to be filled- Treasurer, Secretary, and member(s) at large.
If interested in more information regarding any board position please reach out to any board member or e-mail [email protected] and we'll be happy to answer any questions
Questions or concerns can be communicated to Mrs. Jackson, through the remind class or e-mail and the boosters will get the question to the appropriate people.
