High Expectations for Student Mastery BACKGROUND: On May 22, 2026, the Governor signed Senate Bill 538, which will take effect on July 1, 2026. The bill authorizes public schools to assess an activity fee to an enrolled student or to a student who is not enrolled but is eligible to participate in the activity. The bill provides that public schools may assess an activity fee to a student who is not enrolled but is eligible to participate in the activity, provided that such fee does not exceed the greater of the following: the fee that students enrolled at the school pay to participate in the activity; or a reasonable fee based on the costs to the school, not to exceed $400 per activity. Once the School Board has approved the activity fees as an action item, each school must publish a complete list of fees developed under the law on the school website before the beginning of each school year. The District shall annually report to the Department of Education all fees assessed pursuant to the law. Under the law, a home education student or a public-school student participating at a public school at which he or she is not enrolled may only be assessed the fee paid by students enrolled at the school to participate in the activity. FISCAL IMPACT STATEMENT: This activity fee charged to students who are not currently enrolled in an OCPS school will offset the cost the district currently covers per student athlete enrolled. The recovery of this activity fee will help cover the portion of the FTE that this district does not receive while providing the athletic opportunity to all students in the Orange County Public Schools community.
