Iowa public schools are committed to providing a high-quality education to all students. In accordance with Iowa Code section 301.1, school districts are permitted to charge certain fees to help support and enhance educational programs and services that go beyond the basic instructional requirements.

These fees may include, but are not limited to, charges for textbooks and instructional materials, extracurricular activities, specialized course supplies, and transportation for non-mandated services. All fees are reviewed carefully to ensure they are necessary, reasonable, and aligned with state guidelines.

We understand that financial circumstances vary, and every effort is made to ensure that no student is denied access to a public education due to an inability to pay. Fee waivers or reductions are available for qualifying families.

Our goal is to maintain transparency and fairness while ensuring that students have access to the resources and opportunities needed to succeed.
