Payment Schedule for 2024-25
How Does the Booster Treasury Communicate the Dues?
Invoices
An Invoice from Quickbooks/Intuit will be sent to parents' emails in July/August for annual dues associated with a band class and optional fall activities. Another invoice will be sent around December for optional Spring activities. A payment schedule has been provided for added convenience/household budgeting. It also helps us pay our expenses in a timely manner.
Statements
Student statements will be sent out monthly showing the remaining balance on any open invoices. This is sent monthly as a reminder until balances are fully paid.
Check your email regularly and don't forget to look in your spam/junk folders. We would appreciate your cooperation in achieving a goal of 100% payment participation in 2024 - 2025 to keep our Lambert Bands Program THRIVING and STRONG!
Full Payments are always welcome and appreciated.
Pay often and what you can.
What do the dues cover?
The dues for each program is determined by the Band Directors based on a yearly budget that they prepare in great detail to determine the cost associated with their vision for the programs. The budget is then presented to all parents for feedback, then a vote for approval is held.
