Welcome OSHS Band Parents!!

Since we can't have an in-person Open House to meet with the parents at the start of the school year, we were asked to create videos that the parents (and students) could watch to meet us and get an idea of how our classes will work. The videos for all of Mr. Coughlin's and Dr. Filla's classes are below.
Band Classes Hours 1, 2, 3

OS Band Boosters

​The OSHS Band Boosters are a vital part of the success of the band program at Olathe South High School. The Boosters help organize and run fundraising activities, provide refreshments for the kids, transport equipment, and a billion other little things that often go unnoticed. Please contact the Booster President or Vice President if you are interested in finding out how you can assist the band program with your time or talents. The Boosters typically meet on one Tuesday each month unless a conflict dictates we shift to another day. Please see the Calendar for important dates for both students and parents.  For volunteer signups, please see the Charm's Calendar. 
Next OS Band Booster Meeting:  Thur, Sept 17  7:30 pm
The link for the Zoom meeting will be emailed to parents a couple days before the meeting.

2020-21 Band Fees

We have not yet set the Band Fees for the 2020-21 school year. We have been waiting to how much of the students' normal activities will happen in the fall. We hope to have a handle on this to calculate a budget and notify everyone by the end of September. You can see what we have collected for Band Fees the previous two years at the bottom of this section. We anticipate the Band Fees for 2020-21 will be less.
What are Band Fees?
​Each member of the Olathe South Band Program is asked to pay a Band Fee which covers a variety of expenses members need throughout the year.  Some of these are: MusicFirst annual membership, group shirts, marching uniform cleaning, general supplies, festival meals, and the General Fund. The "General Fund" covers a variety of items.  Some of them include, Clinicians, Banquet Items, Equipment, & Festival Registration. We also ask our percussion students to contribute a "Percussion Fee" to cover short-lived equipment like sticks and drum heads.
Band Fees from the previous 2 years...
$130 Marching Band | $30 Marching Band Percussion
$55  Concert Band | $15 Concert Band Percussion
