NEW this school year is the implementation of an annual Activity Participation Fee of $35.00 for students participating in activities in grades 7-12.
This Activity Participation Fee will allow the student to receive a 2023-24 activity pass to attend Gering games and events. Fee waivers do apply (students qualifying for free or reduced meals will have this $35 fee waived).
Additionally, if your student participates in a sport or activity later in the school year, we encourage you to pay the fee NOW, so they can receive the activity pass benefit throughout the entire year!
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the purpose of a Student Activity Participation Fee? With costs for extracurricular activities rising (officials/judges, equipment, uniforms, etc.) and in an effort to reduce barriers to student attendance at events and activities (gate fees), we have implemented a standard Student Activity Fee for all 7-12 students participating in NSAA and school eligibility monitored activities .
- My (7-12) student participates in several activities, do they have to pay the $35 for each activity? No, the fee is annual and covers all activities for the entire year.
- My student only participates in a winter season activity, do I wait to pay the fee then? We actually encourage you to pay the Student Participation Fee NOW so that your student can receive the activity pass benefit throughout the entire school year.
- When/where will my student get their Activity Pass once I pay the Student Activity Fee? Students (7-8) can get their pass from the Gering Middle School office and students (9-12) can pick up their pass from the Gering High School - beginning August 7th.
- What activities require the fee before participation? Any athletics or clubs and organizations that are NSAA sanctioned or require students to meet academic eligibility requirements.
