The New Ulm Music Boosters are an energetic and dedicated group of parents and supporters who assist the band, choir and music programs in the public schools through advocacy, fundraising and volunteerism. They act as chaperones, trip planners, publicists, con-cessionaires, cheerleaders, fundraisers and uniform maintenance workers.
But most importantly, the Music Boosters are enthusiastic supporters
of our children! Without the active members of the Music Boosters, the music students at New Ulm public schools could not enjoy the success they have earned.
Free membership is open to any parent or community member who is interested in promoting music education.
Skills gained through music instruction include discipline and the ability to ana-
lyze, solve problems, communicate and work cooperatively; all skills that are vital for success in the 21st century workplace.
The arts are one of the six subject areas which the College Board recognizes as essential in order to thrive in college.
Music studentes make many friends and create life-long memories.
Students who participate in school mu-sic programs are less likely to be involved with drugs, gangs, or alcohol and have better attendance in school.
Music is one of life’s simple joys; it helps calm the mind.
Recent studies show that students who study the arts are more successful on stan-dardized tests such as the ACT. They also achieve higher grades in high school.
The love for music and the arts lasts a lifetime.
It’s fun.
