Tell Me About: Upcoming Fee Payment Deadlines, NEW Policy Updates, and How to Pay Fees Online

Winterim Fee Payment Deadline: Wednesday, November 15

Winterim fees are due Wednesday, November 15. If Winterim fees are unpaid after that date, your student will be dropped from their Winterim selection and assigned to a Credit Recovery/Directed Reading class with a $25 fee. Sports and Winterim fees may not be put on a payment plan. If you need to set up a payment plan for other fees, please email finance@maeserprep.org.

NEW Fee Policy Updates

NEW! Beginning December 1, a $25 late fee will be assessed every month for outstanding balances.

NEW! Beginning with winter sports, students will be allowed to participate in a sport ONLY IF all their prior sports fees have been paid in full.

NEW! Beginning with winter sports, there will be a non-refundable $50 deposit for sports that is due before your student is considered a team member and receives a uniform. The remainder of the sports fee will be due mid-season. If the sports fee is not paid in full by this deadline, your student will be unable to participate.
