The music education program supports the instructional music program at William S. Hart High School and consists of the Marching Band, Concert Band, Jazz Band, Wind Ensemble, Color Guard, and Drum Line.

What it reported doing in 2024

The organization provides free assistance to members of the program who benefit by achieving greater performance in the education of music.

Operating model

Revenue model: Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model: Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
