As part of Governor Holcomb’s 2023 Next Level Agenda, the General Assembly adopted HEA 1001-2023, which impacts school corporations’ ability to charge parents/guardians for curricular materials; it does not address other students’ fees.
For the 2023-24 school year, Westfield Washington Schools made the decision not to charge parents for student fees while the Indiana Department of Education worked to provide school districts with guidance on the impact of the new law. This decision had a significant financial impact on the district as it was not reimbursed for the cost associated with consumable classroom supplies.
For the 2024-25 school year, Westfield Washington Schools has reinstated student fees for consumable classroom materials, which is acceptable by Indiana law. District officials appreciate the patience and understanding from parents as the district worked through this new legislation and its impact on WWS families and schools.
2024-2025 Consumable Fees
This year’s consumable fees have been posted to students’ PowerSchool account. All fees should be paid in full by Feb. 1, 2025. Please log into PowerSchool to pay. Device repairs will be added as they occur.
For middle school students, the majority of their fees have been added to PowerSchool. Due to the many schedule changes, all special class fees will be added the week of March 24.
