Student Fees

In keeping with Ministry and District guidelines regarding school fees, Burnsview collects monies to cover the student activity fee, workbooks, course enhancements, a grad fee for grade 12 students, extracurricular/athletics activities, rental of musical instruments, and field trips.

Student fees will be assessed mid-September and fee statements will be emailed to parents or can be viewed through Parent Connect once assessed. Fees can be paid online through Parent Connect by credit card or at the office by cash, cheque, credit or debit.

Student Activity Fee – $25.00

The student activity fee covers the cost of the Burnsview App and helps offset costs related to school events such as the opening day BBQ, assemblies, guest speakers, and awards.

Grad Fee – $50.00

Helps cover the cost of expenses related to grad events including souvenir grad regalia for the Valedictory Ceremony.

Yearbook – $56.00

The yearbook fee is optional but students who wish to be sure of obtaining a yearbook in June should order a yearbook early in the school year as the number of books ordered is based on the number of students who have prepaid.

Accommodating Hardship

As per Administrative Procedure 506, the District is committed to ensuring that no student of school age will be denied an educational program due to financial hardship. Parents/caregivers unable to pay some or all of a school charge are invited to speak to their child’s teacher, school counsellor, and/or the principal. As always, all requests will be treated with dignity and your privacy will be respected. We want to work with our families to ensure that our students, your children, have everything they need in order to be successful at school.
