Arts Initiative: Truck for the Band

Arts Initiative - Truck for the Band

Each year the booster parents of our fine arts department spend thousands of dollars renting trailers and trucks to move instruments and displays throughout the state and country. Having a Fine Arts truck would allow the hauling of equipment to be safer as well as more cost effective. We proudly want to advertise our school with the AHS Raiders truck so that everywhere we go people will recognize our outstanding fine arts program!
