IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT FOR SCHOOL YEAR 23-24: Last November, voters passed Proposition FF, which was passed into legislation as the Healthy Meals For All bill, allowing school nutrition programs to offer all meals free of charge for all students beginning school year 23-24. This means that all breakfasts and lunches will be free for all Durango School District 9-R beginning this coming school year. We will still be collecting applications for school benefits!
School districts rely on this data for other academic programs and funding. These application also benefit families by providing discounts on things like yearbooks, athletics equipment, and rec center passes. It is important to know that submitting your meal benefit application also ensures that state funding will remain available to provide meals at no cost for years to come. Click here for more information on how to apply for benefits.
Payment may be made online after you register by clicking on Pay Activity Fee in the top Quicklinks menu. Payment by check can be mailed or turned in to the front office. Please note student name/activity fee in the memo line.
Physical Examination Form
Students registering for athletics, cheer, dance and marching band must have a current physical examination uploaded to their registration account or turned into our office before the student is authorized to participate in practice or tryouts. Your doctor's office should have a physical form to fill out and give to you after your examination. To ensure clearance for participation, physicals should be uploaded into your account during registration prior to the first day of practice/tryouts. Physicals are valid for 1 year from the date of the last exam. CLICK HERE FOR CHSAA's SPORT PHYSICAL FORM
