Student Activity Funds

Student Activity Funds are funds accumulated from the collection of student fees and school-approved money-raising activities.  Activity funds are used to promote the general welfare of the school and the general welfare of the school and the educational development and morale of all students.  All funds collected by district personnel from students are to be administered through the Student Activity Fund accounts.  Funds received for a specific function shall be distributed only for that function.

Money raised by student clubs should be used to benefit the group as a whole, rather than being credited to individual students' accounts.
