Due to a system-wide outage of Family Access and the upcoming holiday weekend, the early payment deadline for school fees has been extended. Families now have until Monday, July 7, to pay the reduced fee of $180. After this date, the fee will increase to $205.
The fees for the 2025-26 school year are due on or before July 1, 2025. Payments can be made online through Family Access or by check at the District Office located at 517 Deerfield Road. Families have options to set up a payment plan or apply for a fee waiver if needed.
For any questions regarding fees, payment plans, or waivers, families are advised to contact Rosa Castillo at rcastillo@dps109.org or (847) 945-1844 x7221.
