Approved School Fee Schedules for 2023-24
As linked below, fees listed on the Approved School Fee Schedules are MAXIMUMS per student and may be charged at the start of the school year or intermittently during the year. The total charge for the entire year for any listed fee must not exceed the MAXIMUM amount noted on the schedule. A fee not listed on the schedule cannot be charged in the current school year.
The Board approved the school fees/schedules for the 2023-2024 school year at its Regular Board Meeting on April 17, 2023. Approved fees will be posted on RYCOR as they become required for payment. Parents can expect the Start-Up Fees to be available sometime during the month of September 2023, and other fees will be added throughout the year before the activities or optional courses begin.
Note: Schools may have the same fees with different amounts posted. Situations vary from school to school; some fees may be subsidized in one school and not in another.
