WESTMINSTER HIGH SCHOOL“OWL” MARCHING BAND

FEES AGREEMENT

 Dear Parent and Student:

            As a member of the WHS “Owl” Marching Band, the following fees and equipment will be required on the following due dates. Student fees are determined by the Directors and approved by school administration prior to the onset of the new season. Fees are based on previous year’s fees and projected expenses for the upcoming competitive season. We make every effort to keep fees to a minimum so that all interested students can participate. 

 STUDENT ACCOUNTS

Student accounts were created to provide students the opportunity to pay their fees through various fundraisers organized by the Instrumental Music Boosters. Specific fundraisers for student accounts are developed to help offset any financial burden for students and their families, by allowing either all or portions of funds raised to be credited toward each student’s respective fees.  Money earned is credited to their fees and statements are issued, so that students and parents are aware of amounts owed prior to the last payment deadline. ANY FUNDS EARNED IN EXCESS OF FEES OWED WILL BE PUT INTO THE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC BOOSTER FUND. THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDING OF EARNED FUNDS IN THE CASE OF WITHDRAWAL OR DISMISSAL FROM THE BAND.

 FEE REFUNDS- Fees paid may be refunded according to the following schedule:

 ¯    50% refunded if withdrawal before the end of the July mini-camp

¯    No refunds will be issued for withdrawal after the July mini-camp or during the August Band camp.
