Volunteer
There are many opportunities for families of students in the Music Department at Howard High School to lend their time to make our school year a success! Please refer to the various sections below to see where you might be able to lend a hand.
FYIs:
Check out our Marching Band sign-up-genius and see where you can help! https://www.signupgenius.com/go/60B0F4CAFA92BAAF94-57881468-marching If you've already signed up, please double check the sign-up schedule now and throughout the season for any changes.
- There are lots of veteran band parents/guardians to help you learn a new task <3
- Drinks and snacks: for those that sign up to provide drinks or snacks, drop off is typically at the rear/outside doors of the band room (stadium side of the school) at volunteer call time; if dropping off during school hours, you'll have to drop them at the front office.
- At-home football games: volunteers MUST check-in with ticket takers at the Lion Statue side (right side of the school) ticket gate. They will have a list of volunteers who have signed up. After checking-in, proceed to the rear/outside doors of the band room. Volunteers enter the games for free. Refer to sign-up-genius or Band app for specific details as dates draw near. Any same-day volunteer additions or cancelations must be conveyed to the volunteer coordinator ASAP so that they can have the Athletics Department inform the front gate.
- Competitions: students ride buses to the competitions (as long as we meet our fundraising goal!), families and volunteers provide their own transportation; volunteers typically pay for entrance; look for a detailed schedule from Dr. Frisch as each competition date draws closer (depending on the job, some volunteers will meet us at Howard HS and some will be able to meet us at the competition locations)
- Parades: self-transport and/or carpool; look for a detailed schedule from Dr. Frisch as each parade date draws closer (depending on the job, some volunteers will meet us at Howard HS and some will be able to meet us at the parade assembly area)

Boosters supports the whole Music Department at Howard: band, choir, orchestra, guitar. We help with fundraising, concert logistics, etc.
And we support each other as one big family: which may mean signing up to volunteer on a night when your student isn't performing so another family can watch theirs... and vice versa.
It truly takes a village!

Several Board and leadership members are graduating at the end of this school year. If you think you may be able to step into any of these positions, *now* is the time to shadow our wonderful band parent veterans, before that knowledge base is gone!
