Parent Groups
We have some awesome groups for both vocal and instrumental music that support our kids. If your student is involved in music, please consider joining one of these groups!
It's important to develop student's soft skills like leadership, critical thinking, problem solving and conflict resolution. That's why we offer 50 different co-curriculars at Menomonee Falls High School.
Co-Curriculars
Many of our co-curriculars are tied to classroom programs, academies and coursework.

New Music Courses for 17-18
INTRO TO RECORDING TECHNOLOGY AND AUDIO ENGINEERING
One Semester Course for Grades 9-12
While learning how harmony and melody are used in modern songwriting using the guitar; students will understand how to compose and arrange songs. This course will also include an introduction into audio recording technology. Using the software Logic Pro X, students will learn about tracking, gain staging, mixing, effects loops and editing digital audio. Ultimately students will be able to create a background music track or mix for a video, movie or multi-media project.
