To cover the basic needs of our students, Douglas Anderson Orchestra families are expected to pay their "Fair Share". Fair Share is an annual fee paid to the Douglas Anderson Orchestra Boosters. These funds are spent based on a budget that is established by the DA Orchestra Boosters’ Executive Board, with input from the orchestra directors.
In addition to Fair Share, gentlemen must purchase their required performance attire, an approved tuxedo.. Several manufacturers, with reasonable fees, are recommended each year. Incoming female students must purchase the required dress. Purchase information is provided during the orchestra orientation and is available on this site.
Additionally, many orchestra students rent school owned instruments from the school for use at school and home, there is an additional fee for these instruments.
To help families pay these fees the DA Orchestra Boosters offers numerous opportunities throughout the school year for parents and students to raise fees through fundraising opportunities.
Complete information regarding Fair Share payments and responsibilities are found in the Parent/Student Handbook. It is the Parent & Student's responsibility to review and become familiar with these policies.
