If you have any questions, please email nimbconnect@gmail.com ❤️ PLEASE DONATE ❤️ As the pandemic situation is still unfolding, we are continually revising our budget to reflect inevitable changes. However, the program still has current financial obligations to meet that needs as much support as it can get. Last year’s class contribution amounts were just $250 for our classic bands (Concert, Symphonic, Wind Ensemble, and Orchestra), $260 for JBII and $380 for JBI. As stated earlier, this situation is still unfolding as is our budget so please help however you can. Two ways you can help now:

Please check all dates for events for your student and get them on your calendar early to avoid conflicts! Concerts and festivals are part of your student's grades. Students must clear any conflicts with Mr. Brown.
