The New Riegel Local School District shall waive fees assessed by the District for instructional materials only for students whose parent(s) or guardian are unable to afford them. The Superintendent may, as deemed necessary, establish additional procedures to supplement the procedures established in this policy regarding the requests for the waiver of fees. This waiver does not include District fees associated with extra-curricular activities or student enrichment programs that are not part of a course of instruction.

Additionally, the District may charge fees for tools, equipment, and materials as specified that are necessary for workforce-readiness training that may be retained by the students after completion of the course.

Students eligible for a waiver of school fees include, but are not limited to, students who qualify for aide under Ohio Works First (R.C. 5107) or Disability Assistance (R.C. 5115) and students who qualify for free lunch under the National School Lunch Act.
