The schools in this school district will develop a well-rounded and age-appropriate activities program that provides opportunities for students to participate in activities which may include, but are not limited to, journalism and yearbook, music, speech and drama, and interscholastic athletics. To provide a variety of activities for students, the school district will periodically assess the types of activities offered, the scheduling of facilities and activities, and the expenditure of funds.
Recognizing the importance of a well-rounded activities program to the academic, social, and physical development of students, and recognizing the limited funding available for such activities, this school district requires that all student participants, regardless of the activity, pay a nominal fee. These fees are for the operation of the activity only.
The building principal will work on an individual basis with student(s) unable to respond to a requested fee for financial reasons.
At times coaches have the opportunity to require additional fees for extra activities relating to that sport or organization with the approval of the building administrator. Fees will be held in a dedicated fund to offset costs of operating the student activities program. Students who are unable to pay the fee may receive a full or partial waiver as determined by the superintendent or designee on a case-by-case basis.
