Asheville School 19 There are no extra or incidental expenses. Therefore expense parents may know in advance what the cost for a school- year will be. The tuition fee covers the living expenses, except for clothing, and all school expenses except for books and stationery. The fee provides also articles used by the various school teams — crews, baseball, football, basketball, tennis, golf and track athletics — which are not personal or individual property, pays the expenses of the teams and purchases the trophies awarded. This fee is $975, payable $500 at the opening of school in September, and $475 on February first. No repayment of any part of a semi-annual fee will be made in case of dismissal, withdrawal or absence. The fee for instruction in instrumental music is $100, payable $50 at the opening of school in September and $50 on February first. This fee includes the use of instruments for practice.
