What are the benefits of joining CRBPA?
It is a great way to be involved in your child’s activities. It is also a great way to make new friends, both with other parents as well as getting to know the other students. The success of the program depends on your commitment! Joining the CRBPA also ensures that your CR Band student earns points. Points are gained by parent volunteer hours. Points transfer into money that goes towards your child's travel fund for our bi-annual trip to Walt Disney World! 

How do I join the CRBPA?
We ask that you fill out this membership form and send this in with your child and your $5 membership fee (cash or check made out to CRHS).  Dues are $5/family/year.
