Schools make fee payments more convenient

By Matt Nagle

Fife High School and Columbia Junior High School have a new feature on their websites that allows parents to pay all Associated Student Body (ASB) fees online with a debit or credit card. No longer will students have to bring signed checks to school and fill in the dollar amounts themselves, and parents will not have to make special trips to the school to make such payments – now it can be done online. Payments can be made all at one time if parents so choose, and they can also pay fees that might pop up during the school year as well.

Mark Knight, principal at the high school, said the district simply wants to offer convenience to busy moms, dads and guardians. “Basically we want to give families more options in terms of how they pay for the different fees and things that come along with high school, such as yearbooks, parking passes, those types of things,” he said, noting that the option to make online payments via credit and debit cards is commonplace these days. “We put this into place so our families can do the same.”
