Hallstrom Fees
Hallstrom Registration Fees
$190 Family Registration Fee (per family, per semester for all families taking classes)
$175 Sports-Only Family Registration Fee (per family; once per school year)
Registration fees are payable via the website or by check payable to HHSW. Registration fees are non-refundable. Registration fees cover costs related to, but not limited to, rent, cleaning, insurance, website maintenance, etc.
Additional Fees (all fees are per semester)
$25 Late Registration Fee (per family; per semester; as applicable)
$100 Attending Alone Fee (16-year-old students or older; Board-approved application required; per semester fee unless parent performs a service job)

Teacher Fees (all fees are per semester)
Hallstrom registration fees do not cover teacher fees. The teacher fees listed in the class descriptions are per semester, are determined by each teacher, and are payable directly to the teacher. We ask that you be prompt in paying your teachers their required fees by making a payment of some kind (either in full, half, or a monthly amount determined by your teacher) by the third Tuesday of each semester. Regardless of your payment schedule, full payment should be made by the semester's mid-term date. If you pay by cash or check, there is a teacher payment envelope in each teacher’s family file. Teachers who accept electronic payments have made a note in their class descriptions.
Families whose teacher fees are not paid in full will not be allowed to return after midterm until teachers are paid in full, nor will they be able to register for the next semester’s classes. Families who are habitually late in paying teacher fees may be asked to pre-pay all teacher fees in full for future semesters. Families should never ask a teacher to waive teacher fees; please contact the Hallstrom Board for information regarding financial assistance.
NOTE: The first Tuesday of each semester is Add/Drop Day. If you have not dropped a class by 4:00 p.m. on Add/Drop Day, you are responsible for all the teacher fees for that semester, whether or not you withdraw from the class.
F.I.R.E. Sports Fees
Hallstrom Registration fees do not cover F.I.R.E. Sport Athletic Fees. The volleyball and basketball athletic directors or coaches will communicate when the athletic fees are due. Athletic fees can be paid via the Hallstrom website from the family's account.
Financial Help / SCRIP Program
Hallstrom offers SCRIP fundraising to all Hallstrom families, including F.I.R.E. sports-only families, to help offset registration, teacher, and/or athletic fees. Hallstrom's SCRIP program also helps to offset a portion of Hallstrom’s overhead administrative costs, which helps keep fees affordable for all Hallstrom families.
To participate, families purchase SCRIP gift cards for items that they would be buying anyway, such as groceries, gas, etc. Hallstrom and the family receive a portion of a rebate for each dollar spent. Businesses participating in the SCRIP program include many grocery stores, gas stations, restaurants, and other retailers. SCRIP cards may be ordered in advance for Tuesday pick-up, purchased on Tuesdays at Hallstrom, or purchased online/via mobile app for immediate use.
Your friends and family members may also purchase SCRIP cards. The family portion of the rebates will go to you, the current Hallstrom family, to apply to your Hallstrom registration and teacher fees. With a minimal amount of pre-planning, some, if not all, of your registration and teacher fees can be recovered by the rebates earned when purchasing SCRIP cards. There is no out-of-pocket expense to families, as you receive the full amount you spend on each SCRIP card.
