Payments & Fees
Each student of the “Sting Machine” marching band is assessed an amount determined by the budgeted needs of the band for the year. The amount is shared equally by the number of band members. All band students and families can earn credit towards the fee by fundraising, working various events or by simply paying the fee. If a student or family does not earn enough credit through fundraising to meet the financial obligation, he/she is responsible to pay or continue fundraising for the remaining balance.
We recommend that every student try to fund-raise at least part of the band fee so that you feel a real sense of “ownership”, and that you try to carry a balance over from year to year to help offset other expenses such as band logo wear and voluntary trips.
The Band Fees for the 2024-2025 school year are $225. In addition to this amount, all new band and guard members (as well as returning students who need them) will need to purchase a pair of marching shoes for $50.
