Monthly Band Fee Payments:
There are still a significant number of students who have outstanding balances for the 2022 marching band fees. You can pay with cash, check, or money order, place it in an envelope with your child’s name and the payment, and then have your child drop it by the band office. You can also deduct it from your child’s BCP account by filling out the form HERE. Another option is to pay it electronically directly to the school by clicking HERE. It is important to get your fees paid as soon as possible as it will start to impact other events such as prom. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
