Jazz Band Fundraiser: Thank you! We did it!

4/13/2025

 
I’m absolutely thrilled to share that we have raised all the funds needed to purchase our new sound system! Just a few months ago, the idea of raising $6,000 seemed ambitious—and now, thanks to your generosity and support, it’s fully funded. That’s truly incredible!

A heartfelt thank you to Ms. Fikes, Ms. Puhak, Ms. Vandenberg, and the CHS Friends of Music for leading the charge—coordinating donations, publicizing concerts, and supporting us in countless ways behind the scenes.

The response to our donation drive was overwhelming. I was honestly moved to tears reflecting on the generosity surrounding our program this season. I am deeply grateful for your support and so proud to be part of this incredible community.
​
With gratitude,
David Matchim
Director of Bands
Centennial High School

Congratulations Jazz Ensembles!

Support Centennial Jazz Band & Join Us for An Evening of Jazz!

2/11/2025

 
Come out and join us for An Evening of Jazz on February 19th at 7:00 PM at Centennial High School. This special event will showcase the amazing talent of our high school jazz band, as well as jazz ensembles from our feeder elementary and middle schools. It’s sure to be a fantastic night of music, and we’d love to see you there!

In addition to joining us for this great evening, we’re asking for your support to help our jazz band reach the next level. We’re currently raising funds for a new jazz sound system that will dramatically improve the quality of our performances. This equipment will ensure that every note our musicians play is heard clearly and will give our students the opportunity to perform with professional-grade sound at concerts and community events.

If you’re able, please consider making a direct donation to support the purchase of this sound system. Every contribution, big or small, makes a huge difference! You can easily donate through this link: Donate Here.
