MEMBERSHIP FORM

WHO are Fine Arts Boosters (FAB)? 

Parents and other members of our school/community who are committed to excellence in fine arts education for K-12 students and join through an annual membership fee.

WHAT does FAB do all year?

FAB coordinates and provides volunteer and financial help for classes, equipment, performances, competitions, exhibitions, and fundraisers as needed by Fine Arts teachers/classes.

WHEN does FAB meet?

Board member meetings are held once a month at Dayton Christian and occasionally out for dinner.  Teacher/student needs as well as upcoming events and performances are discussed. 

HOW are FAB funds generated? 

Through membership fees and the generous donations of sponsors.  Fundraisers are held throughout the year starting off in the fall with the annual Nut Sale.

WHERE do FAB funds go? 

The FAB provides much-needed assistance in areas where government funding falls short.  Each Fine Arts area receives allotted funds, which are used to support their programs/students.  Expenditures made over the past several years include: 

  • Staging for dramatic productions in the Cafeteria, and stipends for the pit orchestra for spring musicals.
  • Bells for Kindergarten/Elementary Music Classes and special programs by the Dayton Philharmonic for Elementary and homeschool classes.
  • A paper cutter, storage files, a portable CD player, and other items for the K-8 art classrooms.
  • Large art desks for the High School art classes
  • A tuba, a French Horn, a bassoon, a new chimes set, and numerous other instruments for the Band program.
  • A new drum set and a trailer to haul equipment for Resounding Joy

FAB has also awarded scholarships to graduating seniors over the past several years.
