Fund-raising

We are extremely proud of the high quality of the musical experience we are able to offer at Walnut Hills. We have a dedicated music staff committed to ensuring that these opportunities continue to be available to our students. Our administration and Alumni Foundation have been very supportive of our music department and its programs. However, we would be unable to maintain this commitment without funding resources which go beyond what can be provided by the school budget. What we have been able to accomplish over the years has only been possible through the additional support provided by student and parent participation in supplemental fundraising.

Parental support and participation is vital to the success of our efforts. The Music Department engages in a number of annual and ongoing fundraising efforts which we encourage everyone to participate in to the best of their ability. Listed below are some of the fundraising options we offer during the year. Look for additional information to come home with your student from their teachers.
