Scholarships/Fee Waivers
Families requesting a waiver for the $250/$150 PTP Sport Fee must provide documentation to their school’s athletic office of one or more of the following: SNAP/Food Stamps, Medicaid or Free/Reduced lunch. Staff at the athletic office will give you a discount code that will allow on-line registration without being charged the PTP Sport fee.

Families may also bring this documentation and required fees to the Rec & Ed office (1515 S. Seventh St on the west side of Pioneer H.S.) Monday-Friday from 8:00am-  4:30 pm and Rec & Ed staff will process the registration

If you do not have any of the aforementioned fee waiver documentation but still wish to apply for an athletic fee waiver, you may apply for a Rec & Ed scholarship.
