Step 2: Submit Participation Fee Payment
Students who qualify for the Federal Free and Reduced Lunch Program are exempt from paying the Athletic and Extracurricular Activity Participation Fee.
The LRHSD Board of Education will continue to assess an Athletic and Extracurricular Activity Participation Fee for the current school year. The annual fee will be assessed to every student who participates in at least one athletic or extracurricular activity that requires a Board of Education paid coach or advisor. The fee will be assessed once per school year at a rate established by the Board of Education, which for the 2023-2024 school year will be $200 per student, with a maximum family cap of $600 per family. The fee is valid for that school year only. Each student must submit the Athletic and Extracurricular Activity Participation Fee payment prior to the participation (including try outs) in an activity.
The district will collect electronic payments through SchoolCashOnline.com. Please only submit payment for up to 2-3 participating students per family. To take advantage of the $600 family cap, please complete the Participation Fee Family Cap Registration Form to register the information for students for which you do not submit payment.
Payment of the Athletic and Extracurricular Activity Participation Fee does not guarantee position, role, or playing time. It does not guarantee the student or his/her parent, guardian or family control over any conditions, guidelines or policies regarding the team or activities.
Financial Hardship:
No student will be denied the opportunity for an educational experience due to financial hardship. Students who qualify for the Federal Free and Reduced Lunch Program are exempt from paying the Athletic and Extracurricular Activity Participation Fee. Families who do not qualify for Federal Free and Reduced Lunch, but are under financial constraint may submit an Athletic and Extracurricular Activity Participation Fee Waiver to the Principal for consideration, but still must complete the Free and Reduced application prior to consideration. Please contact the Shawnee High School Athletics Office (609-654-7544, x440400) for a waiver form.
Submitting Payments:
The LRHSD uses "School Cash Online" as the portal where parents/guardians can create their account and submit participation fees online. (Link opens to a third party website.)

Refunds:
The fee is non-refundable unless the student is cut from the athletic/activity roster and did not participate in any other athletic/extracurricular activities for the remainder of the school year. A refund request form must be completed and submitted by June 14th or the fee will be forfeited. Forms are available in the high school's main office. Refunds will be issued over the summer, after all of the student's obligations have been fulfilled. Any outstanding student obligations will be deducted from the refund at that time. Students who voluntarily drop out of an activity will forfeit their fee. Refund requests must be submitted within the same school year. Refunds for previous school years will not be given.
