CCSD 89 approves average 5.2% student-fee increase and technology fee hike
Summary
The Board approved an average 5.20% increase in student fees for 2026–27 and 2027–28, including a $10 increase to the technology fee in 2026–27 and an additional $5 in 2027–28 to fund device repairs that have averaged about $16,000 per year.
The Community Consolidated School District 89 Board voted to increase student fees an average of 5.20% across the 2026–27 and 2027–28 school years and to raise the technology fee by $10 in 2026–27 and another $5 in 2027–28. The administration said the additional technology revenue would be used to cover repair and maintenance of take-home devices, which have averaged roughly $16,000 annually over the past three years.
Member Steffens moved approval of the fees and Member McGee seconded; the board approved the measure by unanimous roll-call vote. The administration said it hopes the fee will encourage better care of devices and that the fee level could be reduced in future years if repair needs decline.
