Teacher Volunteers

Teachers who enter students in any WMTA event (District Auditions, Regional Keyboard/VIE, State Keyboard competitions) are expected to work on the day of the event.  Depending on the size, and the number of teachers and students, a participating teacher may need to work the whole day.  

  • If a teacher has been assigned to work and either does not arrive, or has not provided a substitute, a fine of $75.00 (payable to WMTA and sent to the District Chair) will be charged to the teacher. If the fee is not paid within 30 days of being issued, the teacher is not eligible to enter students in the event the following year.  This also applies if the teacher or substitute does not fulfill the entire assigned work shift.  The event chairperson has discretion to waive the fine, based on extenuating circumstances.
