Please read the following Student Activity Account/Fundraising Policy: The majority of the earnings from these fundraisers go into your band student activity account (senior high and marching band only). Some of them have a percentage going back to the Band Boosters so that we may continue to financially support our band and marching band programs in ways that the school district does not. The percentages are listed in the detailed information for each fundraiser and are subject to change. By participating in any of these fundraisers, you agree to follow the Student Activity Account Policy .
