Welcome to the 2026/2027 Castro Valley High School instrumental music year! Our musicians will experience amazing opportunities from pep band to field shows, community events, competitions, and concerts. To make these experiences possible, the CVHS instrumental music programs rely on family contributions and Brigade Boosters fundraising to cover program costs such as event & competition entry fees, instructors, instrument repairs & equipment upkeep, transportation & travel expenses, sheet music, uniforms, and show materials.

Each family is asked to make a per student participation contribution. For all marching band and colorguard students the contribution is $950. For all non-marching band and colorguard students the contribution is $125. While you technically cannot be required to make your student’s participant contribution, your donation is absolutely necessary to the instrumental music programs. We receive only $4,000 from the school district, while projected expenses for the 2026–2027 marching band/colorguard season exceeds $125,000 and non-classroom costs are significant. Contributions are expected at the beginning of the school year and support the entire instrumental music program at CVHS.
