Charms
Office Assistant
aids music teachers and booster clubs organize
student contact information, manage inventory, assign uniforms, track
attendance, and work with trips, fees, fundraisers, form collection, and
lots more. Charms also can send group email, broadcast phone and text messages,
email financial statements and much more.
Because it can unify much of the diverse information needed by Mr. Ceresini
and the Central Dauphin Band Boosters Association, we decided to invest in
and begin to implement in 2010-11this all-encompassing management system,
which works on any computer connected to the internet, from anywhere in the
world!

to log in to access your account. Go to
Charmsoffice.com and find the “Parent/ Student Login” on the right side
