Thanks to our sound fiscal management, Cardinal Local Schools has eliminated both K-12 student fees and Pay-to-Participate fees for grades 7-12.
As these fees have been eliminated we also hope this will allow our students' participation to increase in all extra curricular activities. The District's continued efforts and attention to district right-sizing and financial oversight will hopefully allow us to continue providing these opportunities in 2025 and beyond!
