Band dues are assessed annually to cover additional costs such as clinicians, marching techs, software subscriptions for everyone, miscellaneous equipment, generator fuel, etc.  We are very fortunate that the district has provided more funding for our program in recent years. That funding has eased the financial burden placed on our booster club, but it doesn’t completely cover the items above which are necessary for a program to be successful.

Originally this was to be paid through Skyward, however we have switched back to Charms due to some unclear issues on our end.  Band dues in the amount of $200 have been added to the fixed payments in Charms. If you already paid this through Skyward, please email Mr. Williams with a copy of the receipt or proof of payment so that the payment can be reflected in Charms.

It is our goal for the future to lower the dues or to eliminate them altogether. This will be achieved by bringing in more money with our fundraisers, taking advantage of the Kroger and Amazon give-backs (see the Fundraising page and articles), employee matching programs, and corporate donations.

Finally, if you were impacted by Harvey and these dues are a hardship for you, please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Williams for them to be waived.  We will work with you. In addition, if anyone cannot pay the full amount by December 1, you may make partial payments.

You may pay cash, check (made out to CSHS Band), or credit card (via Charms). Cash and checks should be placed in the band hall safe.
