MMEDO FAMILY MEMBERSHIP FORM

The Metuchen High School Music Program takes pride in having received the award as "Best Communities for Music Education." Music education continues to be strong, going beyond the classroom to provide a dynamic, engaging, and well-rounded education to our children.


The MHS Music Parents, under the banner of Metuchen Music Enrichment and Development Organization (MMEDO), are families of orchestra, chorus, band and every music ensemble who, like our children, feel passionate about music and its beneficial effects on education and formation of these young musicians. With your membership, you will be supporting our children's musical endeavors and our school's music program with your time and talent! Regardless what ensemble your child is in, we invite you to become a part of this family, and let your voice be heard.


Membership is simple. Please fill out the form below and send along with your payment of $25 per family. The annual dues go towards helping defray the numerous costs it takes to keep the music programs moving forward.
