Greetings from the Chairperson!

Friends of Music is a volunteer parent group that supports all curricular programs at North. With the help of Poinsettia sales at Christmas, our MANNA gift card program and our ‘40s Dance we are able to provide funds to our music directors to hire clinicians and enhance the curricular music program.

Friends of Music also supports our extra curricular activities with the help of dedicated parents on committees for these various groups. We have a treasurer who handles the financial aspect of collecting trip funds and making travel plans thereby taking the burden off our district office and assisting the directors with this task. Marching Band, Chorus, Orchestra, Jazz all hold a position on our board. We also have the support of our Newsletter team, Publicity, MANNA gift Cards and Poinsettia Sales. FOM co-ordinates the volunteers eagerly serving cookies and punch after concerts and those helping your students find their audition rooms. Can we use your help? Please have a look at the flyer enclosed in the September 08 newsletter for more info and consider joining us at our monthly meetings. Financial support for the extra curricular activities comes from the individual group's fundraising service projects and from the generous support of the NNHS Booster Club.

We have the greatest kids at North and I say with complete candor that the cream of the crop are in music. Our skilled and talented music directors provide a program that challenges our student’s skills, boosts their self esteem and sets them on a stage to perform for us. No greater moment in our life can be so rewarding. I encourage each and every one of you to attend every concert and prepare to be entertained.
