Technology Fee

Technology Fee 2020-21 School Year
Each year students are required to pay a technology/laptop fee to use a school laptop. Students can pay this fee in person by cash or check. New this year, you can now pay this fee online with a credit card.Parents will be required to sign in or sign up with an account on this site in order to pay the fee. You cannot pay the fee if you continue as a guest.Parents may already have an account already if you have a lunch account set up through OCS. If not, you can sign up and link their sign-up with their child using the student's ID number. Once they've signed up they should look for a category on the left-hand side that says, "school fees" and they should be able to find a category that says "laptop fees" from there.Please Note: This site is the only way we can accept card payments. Otherwise, they will have to pay in person with cash or a check.
