Pay-to-Participate Fees
The Board of Education has determined that students shall pay a participation fee for athletics, arts and clubs, based on recouping a portion of the amount paid out to support the activities beyond the structure of a regular school day. All students participating in co-curricular and extracurricular activities pay a participant fee. The pay to participate program is reviewed annually.
THE 2020-21 PAY-TO-PARTICIPATE FEE FOR MARCHING BAND IS $150. OF THIS AMOUNT, $50 IS ALLOCATED TO THE UNIFORM REPLACEMENT FUND.
Payments may be made by check, money order, cash, or credit card. Make checks payable to Pickerington Local School District. Payments may be made in one or two installments (click on the School District Pay to Participate Information button below for schedule information). School buildings will announce the times and places to make payments.
