The 2025-2026 school year Orchestra fee is $125 and is split into two parts.
A course fee paid to DRHS and a class fee paid to the DRHS Orchestra Boosters.
Desert Ridge High School charges a $25 fee per semester to each student for each orchestra class that they are enrolled in (excluding strolling strings) for a total of $50.
Please pay both semester's fees at the beginning of the year if possible. This is for budgeting purposes. Many of the payments we make for the year happen at the beginning of the school year.
