Niagara Catholic District School Board STUDENT FEES POLICY
Adopted: June 14, 2011 Revised:  December 20, 2011	Policy No. 301.11

STATEMENT OF POLICY

In keeping with the Mission, Vision and Values of the Niagara Catholic District School Board, the Niagara Catholic District School Board, through shared and committed leadership, recognizes its responsibility to support all stakeholders in our Catholic community implementing consistent and transparent practices that cultivate equity and inclusion.

The Niagara Catholic District School Board will make every effort to ensure that all students have every opportunity to access all programs and activities offered. The dignity of every student and parent/guardian will be honoured in the collection of fees.

The Niagara Catholic District School Board and its schools may choose to offer programming and materials beyond what is necessary to meet the learning expectations of a particular grade or course. These opportunities may be subject to an additional fee.

In compliance with Part II, School Attendance, Sections 32 (1) and 32 (2) of the Education Statutes and Regulations of Ontario, the Niagara Catholic District School Board supports every student’s right to attend a school, where the student is a qualified resident pupil, without payment of a fee.

The Director of Education will issue Administrative Guidelines in support of this policy.
