Castillero Middle School


Welcome to the Castillero Music
and Dance Booster Club!

(also see Calendar of Events below)

The Castillero Music and Dance Booster Club (known simply as CMBC) supports our children’s educational experience by providing the best possible artistic opportunities, and supports the wonderful Performing Arts teachers at this school. The Booster Club board, with tremendous help from our volunteer group, runs fundraising efforts through fundraiser concerts, See’s candy and cookie dough sales, and handles the monetary accounts of the students for the Heritage Festival trip to Southern California, as well as controls various funds that exist to support the individual programs through the acquisition of music, instruments, stage props, repairs, etc.

As you can imagine, all those efforts could not, and would not, happen without parents’ participation in many different roles and capacities. Please consider joining us in supporting this worthy cause, and watch your child(ren) shine at Castillero.

To learn more about CMBC, please contact me, or your group representative(s) as listed below, and visit our information table at Back-to-School Night on Wednesday, September 30.
We look forward to a year of blossoming talents.

Sincerely,
Maya Jio
