School fees paid or signed-up for a payment plan
Fees can be paid via Skyward or at any of the school offices, the District office and by mail.
There is a nominal fee for using the online fee payment option, which will be itemized before submitting your transaction. The financial institution processing the payment retains the fee. The District does not have access to the card information or benefit from the fee.
Payment plans: the balance must be paid in full by December 1st of that registration year.
Unpaid fees will result in altered access to Skyward, restricted participation in extracurricular activities and all balances turned over to the District's collection agent.
In the case of driver's education, KEC, and dual credit classes students may be withdrawn for non-payment of those fees.
