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 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 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.
Please reach out if you need to set up a payment plan that works better for your family. Communicate with us!
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.
Here is a glance at some of the expenses incurred by each program:
LB Dues - Covers administrative cost such as software, insurance, professional affiliations, financial services, printing, hardship scholarship, etc.
LWB, LPS Dues - Covers costs of instrument specific instructors, music, event registrations, software & apps & accessories used in class, larger instruments that benefit the whole band by balancing the musical quality, transportation, etc.
