To the SLHS Band Community:

An article was published in the Washington Post and many other local media outlets on 7/20/17 reporting on financial abuse by an SLHS booster group.  I want to reassure you that the group involved has no affiliation with the SLHS Band Boosters.  The situation will have no impact on band operations, or on the upcoming trip to Pearl Harbor.  The SLHS Band Booster Association is an independent 501(c)3 organization and we operate in accordance with FCPS guidelines and regulations, as well as applicable state and federal regulations.  We follow established financial procedures, including regular financial reviews, to ensure that all money raised to support the band is accounted for in our financial records.  
 
If you have questions about our operating procedures feel free to contact me directly.  The Band Boosters are a vital support to the band program, and having a healthy and responsible booster group is key to our children’s success.

Sincerely,
 
Dianne Rose
President, SLHS Band Boosters
