Fund Raising at Waukesha West
Throughout the School Year, students and parents will be offered various opportunities to fund raise. All fund-raising is completely optional. Our comprehensive and highly successful band program is due in part to the willingness of parents and students to raise funds. We offer two types of fundraisers: General Account fund raisers that benefit the entire band program and Student Account fund raisers that families can use to accumulate funds to pay for various activity fees and trip costs.
Every student in the band program at West has an individual account where a percentage of funds from various fund-raising activities are deposited. Student Account funds are used to pay for band fees, trip costs, and any other student costs that may come up throughout the year. These funds can be rolled over into the next school year. When a student graduates, any unused funds in his/her account can be transferred to a younger sibling’s account if a sibling is entering the West Band program the following year. Since funds are raised in the bands name, if there is no younger sibling entering the West Band program the following year, any unused funds will be transferred into the bands General Account.
General Account fund raisers are critical to the success of our overall band program here at Waukesha West. Funds raised from these events are used to purchase instruments, music, student awards, and support the overall activities of all the concert bands, jazz bands and the marching band.
