Membership
If you have a student participating in Fine Arts programs or want to support these students, we encourage you to join the BHS Booster Club and designate one of your areas of interest as Fine Arts. We welcome FAB members and interested supporters of the arts to join our monthly meetings and get involved in planning and running our fundraising efforts as well as working with Fine Arts teachers and sponsors to determine enhancements for their classes and groups.
2022/2023 FAB meeting dates and location are TBD. Check back and watch for an announcement in the weekly school email.

Take Your Seat nameplate program
We sell custom engraved brass nameplates that are attached to seats in the BHS Auditorium. Profits from this fundraiser are used for auditorium improvements, including new lighting and software for sound, video and lighting controls during stage performances. This fundraiser is an ongoing that provides an opportunity to leave your mark at Bartlett High School while providing funding for a well-used school space.
Nameplates can be ordered for three different sections in the auditorium and will be attached on a first-come-first-served basis.
-
Director section nameplates (front center section of seats) are $200 each.
-
Producer section nameplates (front left and right sections of seats) are $100 each.

Purchasing a nameplate does not entitle ownership, special access, seating rights, or seating reservation rights. Nameplates are approximately .75 x 4 inches and will be attached by the seat number so that they are visible when the seat is in the upright position.
