4:142-AP1 Student Fees and Payment Plans

Board Approval of Fees

All student registration and participation fees must be approved by the Board.  Course fees may be assessed by the Administration based on the cost of consumable materials.

Payment Plans

Families who do not qualify for fee waivers may request a payment plan, provided the full balance is paid by May 31. Accounts more than 30 days overdue are subject to Board Policy 4:045-AP2, Recovery of Delinquent Debt.

Credit Card and Electronic Transaction Fees

To reduce cash and check handling, electronic payments via credit card or e-check are encouraged. The Superintendent or designee may assess reasonable processing or convenience fees to offset third-party costs and promote the use of electronic payments.

Proration and Refunds

Fees are assessed in full for the academic period in which a student enrolls, and for all subsequent periods that school year. Academic periods are defined as:

  • Semesters at Batavia High School and Rotolo Middle School

  • Trimesters at all other schools

Refunds are available in full through the 10th day of the academic period. Thereafter, only fees for future periods will be refunded proportionally.

Credit balances at year-end will carry forward to the next school year. If a student disenrolls, the balance will be transferred to a sibling’s account, and notice will be provided to the parent/guardian. Upon request, a refund will be issued for balances of $10 or more. Refunds are not issued for balances under $10.
