Who We Are

We care about music education in our school system and strive to help our band program grow and thrive. We are committed to enriching the musical and personal experiences of our band students and contribute to an improved quality of band life at Andover High School.

What We Do

Every year, the ABA prioritizes the active engagement of all band parents in our esteemed band program. Furthermore, we actively seek the collaboration and backing of the local community, spanning educational institutions, businesses, and private entities, through a spectrum of initiatives including fundraisers, strategic grant applications, and meticulously curated social events. Through these concerted endeavors, we consistently amplify the scope of enriching musical experiences and extend vital financial aid opportunities to our deserving students, ensuring equitable access to the transformative power of music education.

Underpinning our operations are the ABA Bylaws, which serve as our governing rules and regulations. Last updated on 6/15/2022, these bylaws provide the framework within which our organization operates, guiding our actions and decisions in alignment with our mission and values.

Additionally, we are excited to announce the availability of the ABA Student Scholarship Application. Graduating seniors are encouraged to apply for this scholarship opportunity, which can be utilized for approved expenses following graduation. This initiative aims to recognize the achievements of outstanding seniors and support their continued educational pursuits. Click here to apply for the upcoming year!

Furthermore, for those facing financial strains in joining an Andover Band ensemble, the ABA offers a Financial Assistance Application. We exist to aid and assist the band program's growth and thrive, ensuring that all families have access to music education opportunities through all Andover Bands. If you're in need of assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.
