LGHS TRIBE Dues 2021-2022
$275 per student per year

See below how to reduce dues through participation ~ $25 off for each additional student in the same family

Why does it cost so much to be involved?

At a minimum it takes $45,000 to run a successful high school band program for a year.  Funds received from the County are in the form of salaries and facilities. That leaves the students and parents to raise the funds needed to keep the program running the entire year. Items such as instruments, color guard equipment, halftime shows, uniforms, buses, competition fees, ect. range in the thousands of dollars.  Most high school band dues are $500+ per student.  We have made every effort to decrease cost and provide you with a way to "buy down" Tribe dues.
