Band Program Friends

We have some great friends of the CVHS band that have helped our organization mostly with our Tag Day, Click here for a list of the business that have helped us over the years.. Without their support we would not be able to do some of the wonderful things we do for our Kids!!

CVHS Pay-to-Play

Yes Marching band is considered a sport, therefore there is a pay-to-play fee. Not to be confused with the Band Camp fees, pay-to-play goes to the district.

To make your on-line pay-to-play fee click Pay-to-Play . When you are on the pay-to-play site chose "Marching Band Chippewa HS Fall"

This link will take you to PaySchools. If you have not used PaySchools before you will need to register for an account.

NOTE: The school requires this to be paid in addition to the Booster fees.
