Band Parent's Association
(To see contact information for any of the BPA Board members or Committees - go

We invite you to join the SHS Band Parent Association whether you are a parent, a
grandparent, a family member, friend or alumnus. Dues are $20 per year per person and go towards
supporting the band year-round.
You are not obligated to join any committees by joining the Band Association. If you
have some time to give there are plenty of opportunities, big and small, to join in the fun. Print
out the membership application (found on the Documents page) and send in
the money with your student
Our By-Laws can be found
here.
Monthly board meetings are open to all. The
Board of the SHS BPA meets on the second Tuesday of every month. Please confirm the date and location
of the meeting on the
band calendar.
We typically meet in the Band Room. You are always welcome.
How to submit receipts for reimbursement:
If you are not a board member, please check with the President or President-Elect
before incurring any reimbursable expenses, unless you have been asked to buy something directly by
the band directors.
If you are a committee member, please check with your chair before incurring any
reimbursable expenses. The committee chair is responsible for managing the total budget of their event.
In the interest of protecting the sanity of our Band Parent Treasurers,
here are the procedures if you submit a
receipt for reimbursement or credit.
How to request a check:
If you a committee chairperson or other BPA member and need to request a check
for an approved purchase please fill out
this request form and submit it to the treasurer.
Template for Committee Chair: The purpose of this
document is to preserve all the experience and wisdom that you have gained this year, for the benefit of
next year's Committee Chair. It is designed to cover many different aspects of our various activities,
some of which will not be relevant to your committee. Please be as thorough as possible so that SHS
Band can continue to have successful events with the least amount of difficulty possible. You can download it

Dividend Registration The
SCPS Dividend website
is where you register as a volunteer for the school year. Registration is required every year. We will
receive a list of registered Dividends, and can only select volunteers from that list. This is for the
safety of our students. Parents, grandparents, aunts, siblings - anyone who plans to help during the school
year is welcome to register. These volunteer hours are needed for the school's 5-Star School status.
