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. Download the
