Participation & Financial Commitment

Students:

I recognize that I am choosing to be a member of an organization where the utmost is expected of me in terms of excellence and character. I make a commitment to this organization in terms of time, energy, and focus. I will give my very best at all times, make practice a priority, and I realize that rehearsals are for the good of the ensemble. As a member of the Flowery Branch High School Marching Band, I will be in attendance for all scheduled rehearsals and performances unless of family need or emergency. I further expect of myself that I must demonstrate on a daily basis maturity and good character. I am part of an organization where others depend on me and for them and I will expect the best from myself.

  • BPA offers a payment schedule and I will adhere to the recommended payment dates: Apr 8, May 6, Jun 3, Jul 18.
  • I understand that if the band travels overnight, my student will be allowed to participate only if they are up-to-date on their dues payments.
  • I understand that the commitments may be fulfilled by direct payment and/or by participating in fundraising activities.
  • I understand the BPA will offer several student account prior to Pre-Camp such as the following (stay on the lookout for these and other opportunities to pay your fees.):
    • Easter Fundraiser
    • Road Atlanta
    • World’s Finest Chocolate
    • Senior Week
  • Families requiring special consideration, I understand that if I anticipate any difficulties in meeting this monetary requirement, I may fill out the Financial Hardship Application available on our website before May 26, 2022 which will enable a meeting with the BPA president, BPA treasurer, and the band director to discuss potential new financial payment plans.  If a new financial agreement cannot be arranged and agreed to by all parties, my child will not be permitted to participate in the 2022-2023 FBHS marching band.  I also understand all financial matters will be kept confidential and will be shared only with the band director and the BPA executive board.
  • In addition, if I do not communicate any financial difficulties to the persons listed above by the date stated, the BPA and the band director will assume I will make the necessary payments at the required times.
