School Beat: Finance: Percussion Fees, Fee Review

At Monday night's Finance Committee meeting of the Evansville School District there was a discussion of the percussion fee which had been changed in a recent policy version to be $100 per year.

The Finance committee voted to recommend a $55 or $60 fee. At the same time, they indicated an interest in a full review of fees as well as fee accounting, so that fees for areas such as band could accumulate to meet future needs. Mr. Hatfield wanted no fee for persussion. On a split vote, the Finance committee voted to recommend the lower amount. Those who had paid the higher fee this year would have the difference refunded.

This full review of fees will also involve discussion of the current policy that if an individual sport does a fund raiser, the money is placed in the general fund for all sports. This has been a sore spot teams such as cross country, which can hold all the fund raisers they want but the money never goes to cross country.
