Enrichment Fee Information
Payment Deadline is November 1st
The Douglas Anderson School of the Arts Enrichment Fee program is critical to bridging the gap between public school funding and the educational tools needed to provide the specialized level of training of a performing arts school. Every arts area within DA has an enrichment fee to support each student’s individual arts area. Fees are used to maintain the Theatre Department’s curriculum, to provide exceptional opportunities in learning, and to support and celebrate all our students as they progress through their high school experience. The DA Theatre Enrichment Fee, which is paid annually, is for the benefit of all theatre students throughout their four years at DA.

Payment Options
While the Theatre Department relies heavily on these fees to fill funding gaps, we understand that full financial support may not be possible for your family. It takes the whole village to make this program an exceptional experience for our students. Please consider these additional options to fulfill the Enrichment Fee requirement:
1) Take advantage of early payment and receive $25 early bird discount if paid in full by September 30.
2) Participate in department fundraisers (Poinsettia sales, program ads) and receive a portion of sales as credit towards your Enrichment Fee.
3) Volunteer! Every Booster volunteer shift fulfilled by a student or parent is worth $20 of Enrichment Fee credit.
