We, the Music Department of the WSCD are looking forward to another great year of Music making. With parental assistance we will be able to obtain this goal. To that end we are looking to establishing a functional and productive district-wide Music Boosters organization. If you are so inclined to participate PLEASE be in contact with your child's music instructor. We thank you in advance for your consideration, and we look forward to working with you soon in our never ending quest to give your daughter/son the best Music Education experience possible!
