Basic student fees are $30, and students that are taking Computer Science in the upcoming year of 25-26 will owe $40. For a quick experience, you can prepay through Rycor here. (please see the “School/Classroom Resources” portion, then click the Rycor button to log-in and pay ahead). Bring a copy of your receipt to join the fast pass pre-paid line. If you do not prepay, we will only be excepting cash or check.

Kona Ice will be on campus in the car loop parking lot! Stop by for a sweet treat or coffee – a portion of every sale will come back to the school! GO BUCKS!
