It is the responsibility of the student to record points by date and event and have a parent sign off on final point calculation. The point sheet should be turned in to Mrs. Bachert by May 1. The cost of the letter and any postage, handling, admin fees will be due at that time as well.
The award is a chenille music note. Each individual student can choose pins to go on the chenille to represent areas of music that each student has participated in.
The final costs will be determined by the number ordered so that amount may not be available until early spring.
