Pay Fees On-Line


The Rainy River District School Board is making it easier for parents to pay for their child's school fees.

An on-line pay system is in place for its three Fort Frances schools.

Board accountant Meaghan Cox says all parents need is a debit card.

"We can set up those fees online," says Cox, "and parents can go and create an account and log in to a secure on-line site in order to pay those fees. It's parallel to Internet banking or paying fees on-line and the funds flow directly to the school."

Cox says they hope to offer the system district wide in the future.
