All marching band payments are due in the music office by this Friday, April 5th.  Please make checks payable to Centerburg High School.  There is no way to use PayPal or Venmo for this as the board of education does not accept them.  Check or money orders only...   NO cash...sorry!  "IF" you have forgotten what you owe please shoot Mr. D. an e-mail or have your child check in with him during the school day. 2.
