The 2007-2008 choral music Obligation/Fair Share is the amount per student it takes to meet the Choral Booster Budget for the entire school year. This budget is necessary in order to provide quality experiences for every choral music student at Garner High School. This year’s Fair Share is $80 per student. The breakdown of the proposed budget is found on the back of this sheet.
Students have the opportunity to earn all of their obligation through fundraisers, or they may pay it all at the beginning of the year. Students will be credited 100% of their individual profits from each fundraiser in which they choose to participate until they have reached $80 and their balance is $0.
Once students have fulfilled their obligations, they may continue to fundraise if they wish. These funds can help toward individual trips and activities or go toward the general choral fund for equipment and music. Students may accumulate money in their accounts for each year they remain in Chorus, so that extra money will roll-over into their accounts for the following year.
Some fundraisers that have been discussed as possibilities for this year include:
PATRONS CAR WASH
CHICK-FIL-A COW CALENDARS MAGAZINES
BISCUITS/CHEESECAKES FRUIT
CHEESECAKES RESTAURANT NIGHT
GROCERY COUPONS BUTTER BRAIDS
Students should be responsible for meeting their own obligations. This program is designed so that no student should have to pay out of his or her own pockets, nor should parents have to financially subsidize their child’s choral experience. No fundraiser is mandatory. A student or parent may pay an obligation.
The best way to accumulate the most profit is through PATRONS. Students will receive 100% of patron monies toward the fulfillment of their obligations. Attached you will find one patron form for your use. Extras are made available at the student’s request. All patron donations are tax deductible.
Students and parents will receive details of each fundraiser as its time draws near.
Obligation/Fair Share accounts for every student should be fulfilled by
February 29, 2008.
All transactions through the Booster Club should be made by check so that there is a traceable record of every transaction.
Parents, Guardians, and Students:
Please read the preceding information very carefully and sign and return the page documenting your understanding of Obligation/Fair Share. This is an assignment for all students, due no later than FRIDAY, AUGUST 31, 2007.
