VOLUNTEER

Band Boosters support the Kennedale High School Band in every aspect, from games and competitions to trips and behind-the-scenes activities. None of this would be possible without volunteers, and your involvement is crucial to enhancing your child's band experience. Volunteering is also a great opportunity to connect with other parents and gain a unique perspective on your child's time in the band. There are various ways to contribute, and it all begins with volunteering.
