FEES
The band director works with the Booster Board to create a budget each year that is an estimation of the necessary operation expenses needed for the following school year. Some of these expenses are covered through school board contributions, but it is necessary to charge each student to cover additional expenses such as music, additional marching, guard and percussion instructors, transportation and other miscellaneous items.
Marching Band/Color Guard Fees for 2024-25 are $500. There are several ways to pay band fees. Band fees can be paid all at once or you can make monthly payments. Please contact the band treasurer, ofhswpbtreasurer@gmail.com to work out a payment schedule or to inquire about available band scholarships.
