 WHAT IS AOBA? 

AOBA (Austin Orchestra Booster Association) is a 501(c)3, non-profit organization. We are sanctioned and authorized by Fort Bend ISD to support and promote all functions of the Orchestra Department at Austin High School.

 WHO ARE AOBA MEMBERS?

 Membership in AOBA is open to dues-paid parents or legal guardians of students participating in the Austin Orchestra programs for the current school year, and other interested dues-paid persons (excluding currently enrolled high school students). Annual dues are $20.00 per year, per family with a student in the AHS orchestras.

 WHY SHOULD I JOIN?

 Membership in AOBA gives parents an active voice in orchestra activities. Under the guidance and at the request of the orchestra director, AOBA promotes and encourages all functions of the orchestra. In addition, AOBA provides fundraising opportunities to raise money for various sanctioned and approved orchestra activities.

 WHAT ACTIVITIES DOES AOBA DO?

Activities are not limited and include the following:

                                     Fundraisers (sample):

Cookie Sales

Entertainment Books

Trip Coordination and Support

WHEN DOES AOBA MEET? 

AOBA meetings are held typically once per month at mutually agreed upon locations in the evenings throughout the school year. There will be an advance notification of AOBA parent meetings and the agenda. Potential members as well as dues paying members are always invited and encouraged to attend and be involved in AOBA activities. Minutes from each meeting will be available on the AHS Orchestra web site at AHSOrch.org.        

 Please support your student and become a member of AOBA!
