GENERAL OPERATIONS FEES - 2021-22 School Year

Collecting your orchestra fee is imperative to offset the costs of operating an excellent orchestra program. Annual costs including contests entry fees (All-Region, UIL, Solo & Ensemble, and other spring contests); contest day meals; transportation cost; sheet music; school-owned instrument maintenance and repair; student social events and more.

Apart from the orchestra fees listed below, there will also be a fee for those students who perform with a piano accompanist at the Spring Solo & Ensemble Contest, which is paid directly to the accompanist.

Payment of the orchestra fees listed below only partially covers the full cost of operating the orchestra. The remaining funding comes from Raider Orchestra Booster Club’s fundraising efforts and additional donations. Your additional donation is greatly appreciated!

General Operations Fee (choose one) *

$100 - Beginners (6th Graders)
$175 - Philharmonic (7th / 8th Graders)
$175 - Honors (7th / 8th Graders)

Choose Orchestra T-Shirt Size (Adult Sizes): *

Included in Orchestra Fee - Required for all Orchestra Members

7/8th Grade Girls Concert Dress Uniform: *

I understand that my 7/8th Grade girl may need to purchase a Concert Dress Uniform later in the year.
Not applicable to my student

If we do order Concert Dresses this year, we will communicate separately at a later date. They will be fitted and sized during the school hours by a tailor. Both Orchestras wear the same dress, so your child will not need to purchase one in 8th grade as long as their dress will still fit throughout the year. We will know more as the year progresses whether we would need these!

PRIVATE LESSONS

Private lessons area wonderful opportunity for those students who wish to further enrich their string studies. The lessons are 25-30 minutes and occur once a week. Some students may take their lessons during orchestra class while others may be after school. The schedule will be set as forms are received on a first come, first serve basis. The cost is set by the school district and is $22.00 per lesson. Payment is due monthly at the beginning of each month. Make checks payable to the private instructor. Our private teachers have to pass a thorough background check as well as an interview process.
