Activity Fees Protest reported by MyWebTimes.com

MyWebTimes.com has reported that Fieldcrest School District has kept its registration fees on par with other districts, but that its participation fees have climbed at a much higher rate to keep up with expenses related to extracurricular activities.

The website notes that, Dawn Johnson, a resident of the district, has started a petition against the fees online at www.gopetition.com. The petition refers to the fees as "unfair, immoral and a form of discrimination" and says, "Our school system has now stepped in and decided for us if our children are able to to attend a better college or be able to have a fair start in life."
