The SRHS Music program is one of the highest-achieving programs of its kind in Southern California. While everyone involved in this program appreciates all that it has to offer, the program does need substantial funding in order to provide the music education experience students and parents have come to know and enjoy.
The items below are just some of the many costs associated with running this program. Contributions to the SRHS Music Boosters are not required for students to participate in the music program. Donations are one source of funding for the program. They are entirely voluntary, and greatly appreciated, in any amount. Thank you for your consideration and support.
