OPUS Orchestra Parents/Patrons United Support
Our campers study and perform chamber music in small ensembles with other young musicians who share their enthusiasm and skill level. OPUS Camp offers a rare opportunity for students to experience a high level of instruction and individualized attention while working in small ensembles. Our ratio of 1 teacher for every 3-5 students accounts in part for the tremendous growth and development our campers experience during one week at camp. The study of chamber music develops teamwork and draws on the individual strengths of each player. As a result, students are inspired to strive for excellence while making new friends. The OPUS Camp culminates with Listen to Our Young Artists, a free concert open to the public, and held in the evening of August 6th, at Knox Presbyterian Church in Naperville. As part of our mission to instill the value of service to their community, our camper’s have the opportunity to perform at Edward Hospital, during the week following camp, through the Edward Hospital Healing Arts program.

A business/education partnership is designed to be mutually beneficial. A partnership may provide direct support to student activities, instruction enrichment or staff support/development. Business partners have the unique opportunity to make a direct impact on students in their own community. What better return on the investment of our shared future? Partnerships help to engage the community in the educational process. They assist students in making connections between curriculum and its real-world application. Business partners share knowledge and expertise, while influencing the development of competent, confident young workers, which shapes our future workforce and community leaders. Our students need to know how to learn, as well as what to learn. To be successful and productive we must learn throughout our careers and throughout our lives. District 203 is grateful to its 200-plus partners who model lifelong learning. If you are interested in becoming a District 203 business partner, contact Director of Community Relations Nina Menis at (630) 420-6475.
