Tiger Band Apparel Has Been Delivered
We have received t-shirts and sweatshirts that families ordered from Craft-Cochran. Most of those were distributed to the appropriate students on Thursday and Friday, and we have a few left to pass out on Monday. If you ordered a shirt, check with your band member about it.
Band Uniform Fee Billing
You may have noticed that band uniform fees have not come through yet on PowerSchool. Many students were out of town during our uniform checkout day, so I did not have a completed list of fees to turn in. Our plan now is to wait and submit those fees to PowerSchool after CFHS Homecoming this week, so that nobody gets in a jam trying to attend the Homecoming Dance with unpaid fees.
