How Much Will It Cost?

Students in Washoe County public high schools are expected to provide their own pencil and/or pen, paper, and a notebook. Some classes require students to have a folder or notebook in which to keep papers and materials for that one class. Students who cannot afford required fees may contact the bookkeeper and request a fee waiver. This waiver does not cover optional costs such as the student activity fee, class ring, or yearbook. Students may be assessed the following fees:

Book Deposit:

A one-time book deposit of $20.00 is required for all freshman and new incoming students. This deposit remainson file for your student all four years. The fee is refundable to the student when he/she graduate or withdraws, provided all books and materials are returned in good condition.

Class or Lab Fees

Many courses require a lab/material/workbook fee. See individual course descriptions for details. All lab/material/workbook fees are used to help defray the cost of supplies and materials or workbooks given to or used by students in their own projects or assignments.

Instrument Equipment

The orchestra has a $10.00 lab fee to help defray the cost of music, supplies, bussing and orchestra t-shirts. There is no uniform free. A limited amount of instruments, mostly cellos and basses, can be rented through the district for a fee of $50.00, which is non-refundable. Students are required to maintain the instrument, case and bow. Matierials such as extra strings, rosin, rock stops, etc are responsibility of the students and are not provided by the school.
