Pacific Crest and Fontana Unified School District Announce New Partnership

The organization’s fifth Southern California school district partnership brings spring training residency, free concert tickets, fully-funded leadership camp scholarships, and instrument sales discounts to Fontana USD’s music students.

Pacific Crest Youth Arts Organization is proud to announce a new partnership with Fontana Unified School District, marking the fifth such collaboration the organization has established with a Southern California school district. The partnership reflects a core strategic priority adopted by the Pacific Crest Board of Directors in its 2025 strategic plan: building deep, mutually beneficial relationships with local school districts to advance arts education while supporting the corps’ mission.

Under the agreement, Fontana USD will host Pacific Crest for a full week of spring training. In exchange, Pacific Crest will deliver a range of direct educational benefits to the district’s music students:

Free tickets for the district’s band students to attend Drum Corps at the Rose Bowl on July 11
Fully funded scholarships for middle and high school band students to attend a Pacific Crest leadership camp this summer
Deep discounts on the purchase of gently-used musical instruments
