The BCHS Music Boosters Association is incredibly dedicated to promoting the success of each student. As you read through the pages of this handbook, you will notice the great depth and detail that supports the planning of this highly recognized program. Please take a moment to find a path for your passion, stick to it - and let this great program soar. BCHS offers many courses of study, as well as co-curricular activities. This handbook describes the BCHS “Blue Devil Marching Band”, Concert & Symphonic Bands, “Blue Devil Jazz Band”, Concert Choir, “Blue Notes Jazz Choir”, BCHS Winter Color Guard, the Brass - Woodwind & Percussion ensembles, Musical Theater program and other various musical activities. You will find important information regarding finances, performance schedules and other basic information. Please take a special look through our Language Dictionary at the end, a fun place to learn the lingo. A great way to get involved with the program is to volunteer! Sell a t-shirt, load equipment, chaperone a trip, participate in fundraisers, help with uniforms..... the list is endless. There is always something going on, and we are always in need of help. This is a TEAM EFFORT, and your participation is greatly appreciated! Another great year with the BCHS Music program awaits you. This is your program, take pride in your success!!
