Educating the whole child through student clubs and athletic programs continues to be important to us. Unfortunately, with the defeat of the 2006-2007 school budget, the district was forced to make significant cuts and some very difficult decisions had to be made. Among those was a reduction in funds for non-mandated clubs and activities. In order for us to maintain our valuable and enriching co-curricular activities, while at the same time maintaining a balanced budget, students will be charged a non-refundable fee for participation in extra curricular activities. The non-refundable fee for joining each club will be $15. In addition any costs associated with the club will be paid for directly by students or through fund raising.
