Get Involved with the Band Association
Where Music, Fun, and Community Come Together!
Want to support your budding musician and connect with an amazing group of energetic, smart, and fun-loving families? All parents and guardians of Asheville High Band students are automatically members of the Asheville High Band Association!
Our purpose is to support students in the band program and keep it strong and thriving. The Band Association help coordinate activities, provide resources and make sure our directors can focus on what they do best: developing the talents of our students. Our meetings are a great way to meet awesome people, swap stories, and share in the excitement of watching our kids shine.
Whether you have a little time or a lot, every bit of involvement makes a difference. And let’s be real—while they may not say it out loud, your kids actually love seeing you take an interest in their band life!
Come be part of the fun, the music, and the magic. Join us at our next Band Association board meeting—you’ll be glad you did! 🎶✨
