The Kohler Performing Arts Organization (PAO)
welcomes you to PAO’s Greatest Hits! Our mission is
to create a collaborative relationship with the school
and the Kohler community.
With over 80% participation, the Wisconsin Department
of Public Instruction has recognized the Kohler Public
School Music Department as a model music program.
Students perform at a variety of community functions
and civic events.
Specifically, the PAO provides funding to choral and
band students so that they may participate in
educational activities, including a biennial performance
trip and summer camps.
Thank you, again, for attending and supporting our
2014 PAO’s Greatest Hits. Enjoy!
