fees

In order for our school district to provide and maintain instruments for students, Clear Creek ISD assesses a rental fee of $50 per semester ($100 for the entire school year) and $25 for the summer to students who use a school owned instrument.  This fee, while not small, is substantially less than what it would be to rent an instrument from a music store. We have not yet collected the instrument rental fee or the Clear Creek ISD Musical Instrument Loan Contract for the 1st or 2nd semester of the 2013-2014 school year.  Please print out and sign the Instrument Loan Contract from CHARMS and submit BOTH the contract and the payment for the 1st and 2nd semesters(if applicable). These should be turned in to Mr. Brown.  Please make Checks payable to “CCISD”.  DO NOT make checks payable to Clear Springs High School, to the band, to the booster club, or anything else.  ONLY MAKE CHECKS PAYABLE TO “CCISD”.

Please submit the payment and contract by Monday, May 19th or you will be added to the Clear Springs fine and fee list.

Instructions for downloading the loan contract:

1. Login to CHARMS
2. Click the “Inventory Uniforms” icon
3. You should see a list of items checked out to the students, click the button labeled “F” to the right of an instrument (not a lock or locker)
4. Print the form

Important Notes:

• If a student uses more than one school owned instrument, only one contract and one payment needs to be submitted.
• As this is a CCISD fee and not a Clear Springs Band fee, this fee will not show up in the financial section of CHARMS and cannot be paid with a credit card through CHARMS.  However, you can track whether or not the contract and payment has been turned in by logging into CHARMS and then clicking on the “Forms Collected” icon.
• Percussion have to pay this fee as they use school owned instruments.
•  Do not turn in money for summer rentals yet, we will collect that at equipment night.
