According to a national survey, the American people are hesitant to cut sports and extracurricular activities. A thin majority support fees if low-income students are not required to pay the fees or receive assistance paying the fees. Instead of fees or to prevent students from having to pay fees, most extracurricular activities engage in fundraising to cover all of the expenses the school will not cover.

Farkas, Steve, Ann Duffett, and Institute Thomas B. Fordham. "How Americans Would Slim Down Public Education." Thomas B. Fordham Institute (2012): ERIC. Web. 27 Mar. 2015. Synthesis Question: Should public schools charge fees for registration, instruction, classroom supplies, and/or extracurricular activities due to financial stress? Abstract According to a national survey, the American people are hesitant to cut sports and extracurricular activities. A thin majority support fees for extracurricular activities if low-income students are not required to pay the fees or receive assistance paying the fees. 23 percent say fees are a good way to save money. A larger portion, 32 percent, says fees are a good way to save money if financial assistance is provided to low-income students. The largest portion, 39 percent, opposes any and all fees because students gain a lot from extracurricular activities. Instead of fees or to prevent students from having to pay fees, most extracurricular activities engage in fundraising to cover all of the expenses the school will not cover. The students, parents, teachers, administrators, and extracurricular activity coordinators come together to decide how costs can be covered without fees or how money can be raised to cover the fees.
