Student Credit Policy

The purpose of Student Credit is to help band students defray the cost of various trips associated with the instrumental music department. Student Credit is established for students currently enrolled in instrumental music. Credit is earned by participating in Band Booster fund-raising activities. The amount of credit earned is determined by the Valley Band Booster Board and the appropriate fund-raising chairperson.

Student Credit is to be used primarily for instrumental music trip transportation fees. Student Credit may be used for other band fees at the discretion of the Band Booster Executive Board and/or Band Directors.

If there is any credit in an account when a student graduates from Valley High School, the balance of credit will be placed in a special account to be used at the discretion of the Band Booster Executive Board and the Band Directors. If a graduating senior has a younger sibling who is already enrolled in band or who will be enrolling in band the fall following graduation, the credit from that senior's account may be transferred to the sibling account. If a student drops from band and has an active account, the credit will either remain in his/her account until graduation from Valley High School or will be transferred to a younger VHS sibling's band account. If a student moves from the district and has an active account, that credit will be transferred to the special account.

This policy is effective July 1, 1993. This policy supersedes any previous policies, written or unwritten.
