morning-meeting Pay School Fees

DSST’s educational program includes components that are not fully funded through public revenue sources, as a result we need to supplement public sources through charging fees to our students. Each fee supports a specific component of DSST’s program, however we do not want there to be a financial barrier to attending DSST therefore fees are not required for attendance at DSST. Families are encouraged to pay at the beginning of the school year but have the option to work out a payment schedule with the front office team. 

If your family qualifies for, or may qualify for, free or reduced price lunch, DSST will partner with you to find an amount that you are able to pay. The reduced fee schedule below is a suggested amount so please work with the front office team to determine the amount you’d like to pay.  

Please note: Additional extracurricular activities may require fees to offset the cost of the club and families will be charged accordingly.

Health & Nursing

Please use the forms below for any of your students medication needs. It is very important that we have these documents signed by a doctor and submitted to our school nurse before medication can be given to any student. 

  • No medications can be given to students without one of the medication forms listed above
  • This includes, but is not limited to, medications such as Tylenol® (acetaminophen) and Advil® (ibuprofen)
We typically have a nurse on site for two days per week--one day at the Middle School and one day at the High School. Our Front Office is trained in administering medication.
