Communications
Please click here to apply to Cuttime. This is a free, cloud based (no App), data management system that is used for managing schedules, volunteers, your fair share account, fees due, and announcements. Enter FORT MYERS HIGH SCHOOL and complete your registration. You will be notified once you are verified.
Logistics
Marching band will have after school practices and Friday night football games. You will need to supply transportation to and from school when it is not provided from the district.
Many groups have additional practices after school including dance, color guard, drumline and more.
There are costs associated with participation in the program. However, fundraising opportunities are available. If your student earns "fair share" (to be explained further later on this page), you can have zero out of pocket costs. You will learn about these opportunities in Charms.
As a participant parent, guardian or interested person, you can become a member of the Greenwave Band Boosters, Inc., a 501 (c) 3 that supports the program by paying for instructors, repairing equipment, organizing volunteers and much more.
