KEY ACTION The Wooster City School District Board of Education will consider an administrative recommendation to eliminate the athletic pay-to-participate fees for the 2021-22 school year.
At Tuesday evening s regular board session, Director of Secondary Education Richard Leone presented a market analysis of Wooster s athletic pay-to- participate fees structure, which he said began in 2004 during a period of hard economic times and failed operating levies. Since 2004, our community has been very, very supportive of the district and recently passed a levy, he said, prompting consideration of dropping pay-to-participate fees for the coming school year.
The district charges a one-time fee of $120 no matter how many sports played at Wooster High School and $50 at Edgewood Middle School. Comparing the district s pay-to-participate fees to other districts, Leone said, while they are somewhat in line, they are the highest in Wayne County.
