Fair Share Agreement

As you are aware, a program of our success and magnitude even with restrictions could not exist without funding. Each family is assigned a “Fair Share” which is defined as the required, annual per-student payment necessary to fund the Naples High School Band Program. The Fair Share amount for the 2024-2025 school year is $700.00. This covers all students enrolled in the Band Program. (Music, uniforms, transportation, outside instructors, etc.) Parents and/or guardians may choose to pay the entire $700 by June 3rd, or elect to pay $300 in installments upfront and “work off” (reduce) all or a part of their $400 balance by volunteering in concessions, on the band volunteer portal. See Payment Instructions below. *Note: To earn a band letter, students or at an event designated “FS” must complete an additional 4 hours (see Handbook), which have not been applied to their family Fair Share credit hours. Band Students who participate fully in all band-sanctioned events can qualify for 25 Bright Future Hrs. (Rules set annually by the Guidance Office.)

Payments are due as follows:

$100 SPOT DEPOSIT (ALL)– This guarantees a marching spot for your student and will be directly applied toward band fees. (Due on or before May 7th at our mandatory forms-return meeting.)

AND

• Option 1: $600 w/signed agreement (below) at Preseason Band Camp, June 3rd, 2024.

• Option 2: $200 w/ signed volunteeragreement (below) at Preseason Band Camp, June 3rd, 2024 AND

Any remaining balance not “worked off” by volunteering (up to $400) is due in full by April 2025, or your bill is turned over
to the NHS front office for collection. Penalties may apply.
* Note– Color guard competition uniforms are purchased in addition to the fair share agreement amount above. Uniform
payments are made with a deposit at fitting and the remaining balance upon uniform issuance.
* Note – Percussion students will owe an additional $50 for their performance sticks in addition to the fair share agreement amount above.
** Note – this fee schedule only applies to the 2024-2025 school year. Any donations and/or sponsorships above the fee schedule is greatly appreciated. Sponsorships over $250.00 will be featured on the band website and have a shout out on the band social media sites.
