Great news for the 2022-23 school year, the Havana School District will NOT be charging extracurricular fees for students interested in participating in district sponsored sports and activities. This is a great opportunity to participate in extracurriculars without the additional cost! Go Ducks!
As we approach the beginning of school and the Fall sports seasons, the Havana School District would like to notify all fans planning to attend home district sporting events that the district will begin selling athletic event passes again during the upcoming 2022-23 school year. Passes can be purchased by parents during school registration next week (Wednesday, August 3rd) or when the district is back in session throughout the school year. These passes are a great option for those fans that plan to attend a large number of home extracurricular activities in the district throughout the year. See the attached flyer for athletic pass prices, as well as admission costs (admission prices exclude sanctioned tournaments by the IHSA, IESA, etc.) for attending events this year. Go Ducks!
