Marching Band & Color Guard Dues

2026 dues are $700 for marching band and $850 for color guard. 

 

  


Annual Class Dues 

All students in band class are required to pay dues that help cover the cost of the music, instrument repairs, classroom equipment, and travel for any field trips. We keep this cost as low as possible to be competitive with the other athletic events at LHS and with other bands in our region.

 

Funding for our program comes from several sources: Lakeside High School and Dekalb County provide funds for new instruments and equipment, and band fundraisers help to cover the one-time costs of new instruments and equipment, and the reconditioning of older equipment. Student band dues cover the everyday costs of keeping our band functioning and growing.

 

 

 


After school bands and other extracurricular fees

Students who participate in other bands or extracurriculars are required to pay dues. Payments are made to the Lakeside Band Association, which then pays the outside institution as applicable.
