​It was great meeting with the instructors and board to kickoff this years #AHISD stings program support planning. Did you know Friends Of Stings (FOS) support is critical to supporting a rewarding experiance for kids and community?

FOS supports
over 800 students
6 teachers
85 hrs per student per school year in formal instruction
4 school campuses
Over 27 concerts
Music clinics
Mock auditions
Regional and school auditions Orchestras
Guest artists, Recitals UIL, and scholarship competitions

Since 1973, the AHISD Strings program has grown 40 times larger than the original 18 students.  Today there is a a student to teacher ratio of 1 to 133.  We learned tonight that AHISD can look to expanding further as there are over 400 elementary school students, including over 20 Bass players in the 4th grade.  How exciting is that?


So the program is alive and impacting kids everyday but is reliant 
on your support to continue providing high quality musical instruction and student support. 

As a non-profit, volunteer organization, Friends of Strings aids strings teachers in training your children to play their instruments, offering them a valuable and enriching education in the field of music. This year, Friends of Strings has set a specific goal of raising an additional $15,000 to address budget shortfalls.

Your donation makes a difference.

11 SEP 2019 is an amazing opportunity to support a great business, feed the family,  and help the Alamo Junior High School Strings Program. 

Burger Fi is known for its famous crispy fries and double-battered onion rings, which they with house made sauces. Other favorites include their made-in-house VegeFi (our own gourmet spin on a veggie burger), Wagyu beef hot dogs with all the fixings, frozen custard, and local craft beer and wine. BurgerFi Sauce recipe alone uses more than a dozen fresh ingredients with flavors that perfectly complement their juicy, all-natural cheeseburger.
