School Fees

The Wasatch School District Board of Education sets maximum fee amounts annually in order to maintain consistency and equity across the district. At the principal’s discretion, any fee may be less than the Board approved fee, but no fee can exceed the amount on the Board approved fee schedule.

The public has two opportunities to comment on the proposed fee schedules for the upcoming school year prior to the adoption by the Board.

Wasatch County School District works with its schools to annually recommend fees to its Board of Education for approval in order to run programs and activities for students. The Board recognizes the need for fees to fund school programs but is committed to minimizing the financial impact of fees on families. Every effort shall be made to keep school fees to a minimum.

Students whose family resources are limited may apply for a fee waiver. If approved, the fee waiver student can participate in any school class or activity free of charge. To apply for a fee waiver, the student will need to submit an application and provide eligibility documentation. During the review process, the fee requirement will be suspended until a final decision has been reached about the student’s eligibility for fee waivers. If the application is denied, the school will send a “Decision and Appeal Form,” explaining why the application was denied and how to appeal the decision.

School principals have been designated as the administrators of school fees and fee waivers at their school. Please direct questions regarding fees or fee waivers to your principal.

The Wasatch School District has adopted school fee and fee waiver policies in accordance with the rules set forth by the Utah legislature and Utah State Board of Education (USBE).
