No Fees for Essential School Activities

All students have a right to take part in educational activities at school without paying a fee, deposit or other charge. An "educational activity" is an activity offered by a school or school district that is an integral part of a student's education, including, but not limited to, curricular and extracurricular activity. Schools cannot charge or request a deposit for materials, physical education uniforms or graduation caps and gowns that are required to take part in an educational activity.

If you were charged a fee this school year for an educational activity that is an integral part of your child’s education, you may request a reimbursement from your child’s principal and/or file a uniform complaint.
