 Jeffco Budget Community Forums
Saturday Jan. 28
9-10:30 am
Ralston Valley High School or Arvada High School
 
 
Please help us save elementary music in Jeffco Schools! The two closest community forums will be held at Ralston Valley HS and Arvada HS and is your chance as a Jeffco resident to offer your opinions on budget reductions and what we want to offer to the students of Jefferson County.  We really need our parents to talk about the value of having their student(s) in band… if we lose elementary music, our kids will be forced to start in middle school. Surveys across the country where this type of elimination has occurred show that up to 65% of students who would have started in elementary school would not or did not start in middle school. This decrease in students would then drastically impact our high school programs as well. The district is holding these forums not only to hear what Jeffco stakeholders value, but also to hear ideas and solutions that will allow us to keep  programs we value in a climate where our funding is decreasing year after year.   
 
 We need our voices heard - Eliminating elementary music is not in our kid’s best interest!

Pomona Arts and Humanities Program (PAH) 
Where the arts and academic achievement meet.

Pomona High School offers a unique program for students with creative talents and interests, who also want a demanding academic program. It is the Pomona Arts and Humanities (PAH) program, and many band students are members. Students select an artistic path - instrumental music, vocal music, visual arts, theater or a multi-path option – and then take core academic classes designed to promote a creative, hands-on, integrated approach to learning. Prior to graduation, students complete a capstone project demonstrating what they have learned in the PAH program.
 
The PAH program was developed based on research showing that on college entrance exams, students with an arts and humanities background out-performed students who did not take these types of classes. The research also showed the longer a student remained in an arts program, the better their results on college entrance exams.

Booster Meetings

Next Booster Meeting - Monday, February 13th, 7:00 PM at Pomona. 

 
General Fundraisers

All families are required to support the general fundraisers which contribute a significant amount of money to the general band fund.  The general band fund pays for instructors, instruments, instrument repair, equipment, transportation, and props!  Without a strong general fund, student fees would be much higher!  Please support Bandimere, Pomona Music Festival and Bingo!

 
Bingo

All students are assigned to work on Bingo teams and are required to staff Bingo 3-4 times per year.  Bingo sessions are  on Sunday nights.  Additonally, there are many opportunities for adults to join a team that staffs one night per month.  Without student AND adult support, Bingo cannot be a success.  If you are interested in joining an adult team or need more information, please contact Karyn Clark at klynclark933@yahoo.com .
