Donations to the Mercer Island Schools Choir Boosters supplement the funding that the choir program is able to obtain from the district and from grants issued by the Mercer Island Schools Foundation, ASCB, the Fine Arts Advisory Council, and the PTSA. Typical costs that are not covered by such grants and district funding include additional professional enrichment opportunities, and various “food, fun, and spirit” activities.
Booster club funding supports those activities that are not expected to be covered through other grants, including extra-curricular enrichment, concert accompanists, professional small group instruction for singers, hosting events and socials, field trips and choral competitions, grants, and scholarships.
