Getting Started

Registration Fees
Fill this form out prior to summer registration. It details all fees and costs surrounding band.

New School Policy on Fees, Fines and Fudraisers
Collections of fees and money owed for fees, fines and fundraisers are way down this year in all organizatrions at North Garland and many students have been allowed to accrue several years of back fees.
The administration had a particularly difficult time getting seniors to clear money owed to the school before graduation (you can't get a diploma if you owe money to the school).
After review of the situation, the school administration has asked all sponsors to help ion the following ways.

1. - No t-shirts, shoes, etc... shall be purchased on a students behalf or given to a student "on credit". This means that a student must have paid for the item before the band can issue it. This also means that until the item is paid for, a student is out of uniform and cannot perform with the band.

2. - If a student owes money past a fundraiser's turn in deadline, they may not perform or compete with that organization. This means exactly that. If our summer band fundraiser, cookie dough, is not paid for by the deadline, you can't perfom with us at pep rallies or go to games until it the issue has been resolved.

3. - The delinquent list will be kept current. This means that after a fundraising deadline, uniform turn in day, equipment return deadline, registration day, etc...all students who are not current will be added to the delinquent list and will be removed when the student has become current and up to date. Students who are on the delinquent list will not receive a report card or be issued transcripts until the issue is resolved. Band students who are have a delinquency in band will not perform until it is resolved.

Scholarships

Teresa Gholson Memorial Scholarship
The Teresa is awarded to a graduating senior. Teresa was a french horn player graduated in 1992. She lost her life in 1995 in a tragic collision with a truck. The scholarship application is centered around your band experience more than around accomplishments. In other words, what has band done for you, more than what have you done for the band. We are always proud to present this award in conjunction with Teresa's parent, who still fund a portion of the scholarship.

Leadership Scholarship
This scholarship funds a returning student to attend a band camp in the state of Texas.
