Student Fees
Pembina Hills School Division High Schools provide Career and Technology (CTS) and Elective programs that allow students to engage in projects beyond basic curriculum requirements, encouraging them to better learn and refine their skills in a range of trades. Although there are additional expenses, PHSD high schools have been able to subsidize the cost of materials.
Beginning in the 2025-2026 school year, PHSD high schools must implement a $25.00 per course charge for enrollment in Advanced CTS courses. This includes Sr./Advanced Welding & Fabrication, Mechanics, Woods/Construction, Foods, Cosmetology, and Comm Tech (introductory courses will not require a fee at this time). Sr./Advanced Physical Education courses that include field trips that complement the regular program may require student fees as well.
Each year, schools assess potential costs for school programs and post this information for parents’ and students’ review. The School Fee Schedule lists the maximum fees that may be charged for each program. Actual costs will usually be significantly lower or non-existent, but we want to ensure parents and students are made aware of fees that would apply when necessary.
