Hello band and orchestra students and parents,
I hope you are having a great week!
Here is the nitty gritty info about fees and the music lesson scholarship for band and orchestra.
1. Chaperons are needed for our fall retreat! Please email me if you are willing to help out.
2. The Band, Orchestra, Choir Parent Board (BOC) is offering music lesson scholarships. Follow
this link and fill one out if you are interested. The deadline is Monday, September 24. The scholarships awarded may be used immediately or for later in the school year.
3. Here is an important
note about the fall retreat and a
consent form to print off and fill out and return to school with a check for $45 by Monday, September 24.
This retreat is for all band and orchestra students. The fee will cover the cost of food and facilities at Camp Geneva and can be mailed to HCHS or dropped in the designated envelope in the band/orchestra room. We are looking forward to this time together. Please communicate with me if you are in need of financial assistance.
4. Band and Orchestra uniform fitting is coming soon and will happen during band and orchestra class periods.
Each fall band and orchestra students are assessed a uniform fee which covers uniform alterations, repairs, marching shoes and gloves, and dry cleaning. The shoes and gloves are for band marching uniforms only. This fee will be due by Thursday, September 27. It is $15 for orchestra and $25 for band. Please communicate with me if you are in need of financial assistance. Please designate uniform fee in the memo line of the check. This fee can be mailed to HCHS or dropped in the designated envelope in the band/orchestra room.
-Band and Orchestra guys will need black dress shoes and black socks for their tuxedo and girls will need appropriate footwear for their black dresses. These items are not provided.
-Brass, woodwind, and percussion members of the symphonic orchestra only need to pay the band uniform fee, not both.
5. Each fall students who are using a school owned instrument are assessed a rental fee of $60. This fee covers a portion of the cost of repairs and maintenance. Students who switch instruments to help with the balance of the band or orchestra are given a waiver on this fee for the first year. Those checks are due on Thursday, September 27. Please communicate with me if you are in need of financial assistance. Please designate instrument rental in the memo line of the check. This fee can be mailed to HCHS or dropped in the designated envelope in the band/orchestra room.
Thank you!
