Music Boosters

The San Mateo High School Music Department is gearing up for another year of superb music education with a full and exciting concert and activity schedule. The Music Boosters, a parent volunteer organization providing financial support and advocacy, is an integral part of the ongoing operations of the many groups within the Music Department. Last year, volunteer hours and financial contributions allowed the Concert Band, Jazz Band, Marching Band, Color Guard, Winter Guard, Orchestra, Chorus, Concert Choir, and Chamber Singers to perform and compete throughout the year.
