As an open-access school, Morris Jeff Community School embraces learners of all backgrounds and holds each student to the highest expectations. Students are provided with a deep, rich curriculum that engages them in inquiry, develops strong critical thinking skills, and challenges them to a new level of learning. We aim to prepare Morris Jeff Community School students to become lifelong learners.
In an effort to meet its mission, Morris Jeff sometimes requests families pay certain fees and costs related to the academic program. Co-curricular and Extracurricular fees and costs are also issued to families during the school year. This is a necessary step in Morris Jeff’s ability to provide academic organization, enriching academic experiences, and extracurricular experiences that are traditionally valued in public education.
Cash, check, or credit card payments are accepted through the My School Bucks website or front office. Payment must be made at or before the beginning of the activity for which a fee is assessed or requested unless other arrangements have been made or requested. Some fees are also eligible for partial installment payments.
Here are the Student Fees for the 2024-25 school year:
- Middle School Student Fees - English & Spanish
- Student fees are due within two weeks of enrollment.
- High School Student Fees - English & Spanish
- 9th through 11th grade fees are due within two weeks of enrollment.
- 12th grade fees (Senior Class Fees) can be paid in installments, but all obligations must be met to participate in the Graduation Ceremony.
Morris Jeff recognizes that families may face circumstances that cause hardship or inability to pay said fees. No student will ever be denied participation in a field trip because of a lack of ability to pay a fee. Students will not be denied any other academic opportunity because of a lack of ability to pay a fee. Failure to pay any required fee shall not result in withholding a student’s educational record. To obtain a waiver of a particular fee, parents should complete a Waiver Request Form directed to the Executive Director of Finance & Operations. Free/Reduced Lunch, Direct Cert, SNAP, and Homeless Data will be reviewed to determine waiver. Waiver determinations will be communicated to the family via email. For waivers granted, a complete waiver may be issued for students meeting the requirements to be recognized as receiving free lunch. A partial waiver may be issued to a student who has requested assistance that meets the requirements to be recognized as receiving reduced lunch.
Specific costs and fees may vary slightly from year to year. For specific costs and fee ranges, please refer to the Student Fees Index.
Extracurricular fees associated with athletics, clubs, performance groups, or after-school groups are separate from student fees and collected individually once a student joins a team, club, or group.
