Parents/Guardians:
Thanks to those of you that have paid your student’s fees to date!
Please frequently check your student’s fee balance using your Skyward Family Access Account. Simply log into your Family Access Account and click on “Fee Management” from the menu on the left.
“Fee Management” shows the payment status of your student’s curriculum fee which helps provide textbooks, curriculum materials and software to the classroom. “Fee Management” also lists specific fees such as Athletic Fees, lost books, etc. that may have been added by your student’s school.
If your student’s account has outstanding fees, please use one of the following payment options to pay your student’s fees:
Cash or Check Payments for outstanding fees may be sent directly to your student’s school. Include your student’s name and the item(s) you are paying for in the memo section of your check or with your cash payment.
Credit Card Payments for your student’s fees may be made by selecting “Make A Payment” on the Skyward Family Access “Fee Management” screen. (Detailed instructions for making online fee or food service payments are provided in Skyward Family Access. Click on “Online Fee Instructions” listed under “District Links”.)
Waived Fee Applications are being accepted. Families who qualify for free/reduced meals and complete the Consent for Disclosure form (back page of the Application for Free and Reduced Price School Meals) will have their curriculum and/or athletic fees waived if approved. Do not submit fee payment until your application has been processed and you receive your Notice of Eligibility from the Director of Food Service. The Application for Free and Reduced Price School Meals may be found on the district web page www.usd266.com listed under “District” then “Frequently Requested Forms” and “Free & Reduced Form and Consent for Disclosure”. A new application must be completed each school year.
Please contact your student’s building Accounting Secretary if you have questions regarding your student’s fees or your student’s building Skyward Secretary for questions/problems with your Skyward Family Access Log-In.
FEE PAYMENT NOTICE
Except for Waived Fee Applications, Maize USD 266 requests payment of school year fees during the enrollment period, when a fee is posted to the student’s Skyward Family Access Fee Management account or when the parent/guardian is notified by the student’s school that a specific fee is due.
Full payment of all student fees is expected during the school year the fee is incurred. Partial payments may be made throughout the school year as long as the student’s Skyward Family Access Fee Management account balance is paid in full by the end of the school year. The school district may withhold student diplomas for outstanding fees.
