NOTICE OF FEE INCREASE HEARING
The Whitepine Joint School District No. 288 in Latah and Clearwater Counties has proposed to increase its Sports Passes by an amount that exceeds 105% of the fee charged last year. The proposed increase is listed below. The following table is an estimate of what these changes may mean to the fee user:
Sport Pass Costs
2025 - 2026 2026 - 2027
10 Events = $40 $40 $50
20 Events= $70 $70 $90
30 Events = $90 $90 $120
40 Events = $100 $100 $140
The last increase in sports pass rates was for the 2019-2020 school year. All costs to operate the athletic program continue to rise each year. The fee increase is needed to maintain the program. The new prices will take effect for the 2026-2027 school year.
All community members are invited to attend a public hearing on the increased fee request. The hearing will be held on August 13, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. immediately before the regular board meeting at the Elk River Community Center, Elk River ID 83827.
