Hardin County Schools is introducing an online payment platform to give parents convenient payment options.
The district partnered with SchoolCash Online to implement the new system.
“Parents can manage all school fees and items for their students in one location and have the convenience of a secure online payment platform, and the schools improve safety and reduce risk by minimizing cash and check payments at the schools,” said HCS Community Relations Specialist John Wright.
The system will be available for student activity-related items such as field trips, fundraisers, club dues, and registration fees.
“When those things come due, when parents have signed up to participate in SchoolCash Online, they will get an email that the fee is due, and so they can go into the SchoolCash Online system and pay that fee,” Wright said.
Parents can learn more by visiting the Hardin County Schools website.
Meanwhile, HCS announced this week that District Maintenance Supervisor Jamey Hawkins is now the district’s Director of Buildings and Grounds.
“He’s a true leader, and will do an amazing job in this role,” Wright said. “He has a strong relationship with the current members of the Buildings and Grounds family, and he knows our facilities inside and out. Each schools’ staff knows him and the outstanding work he does.”
Prior to serving as maintenance supervisor, Hawkins worked as a district HVAC specialist.
