Message From Mrs Kayor
Parents,
BOA fees are past due and band fees are due October 15th. Currently, we have $5946.00 in outstanding fees. It is critical these fees are paid so the band can continue to pay operating expenses. Invoices for unpaid fees will be provided to Mr. Gibson on Nov 1st to meet with students. Thank you.
If you have any questions feel free to email me at forestviewbandtreasurer@gmail.com
