PARENT INVOLVEMENT = A SUCCESSFUL BAND PROGRAM
Getting involved in the band program will give you the opportunity to share with your child the last four years of their education. These years that go by fast and are rarely enjoyed by so many parents. Your child might say they rather not have you around, but most parents learn that they do appreciate your involvement and will thank you in the future.
Enka High School is fortunate to have a great band director, and a wonderful staff. The band needs parents to be able to function; it is for this reason that we urge you to get involved. Join one of the many committees; we need your help. Grandparents, siblings, or any member of your family can get involved and make a difference.
Joining the Enka Band Boosters is a great way to meet the parents and the kids your student will be spending much of their time with for the next few months.
The easiest way to get involved is by joining the monthly Band Parent meetings, held on the 2nd Monday of the month in the EHS band room @ 6:30pm. Here you will learn more about the program and where it needs your help. This is a terrific way to keep up-to-date on everything that’s coming up and up for discussion behind the scenes.
