2017-18 Sports Participation & Team Operating Budget Fees  (.pdf)

Sports Participation Fees & Team Operating Budget Fees Beginning with the 2017-18 school year, Riverwood will collect the Sports Participation Fees and Team Operating Budget Fees. (Previously, the Riverwood Athletic Association collected these fees). Make checks payable to "Riverwood International Charter School" or use the Fulton County Schools Online School Payments portal  to pay with a debit or credit card. NOTES: 1.  Each student-athlete pays the $100 Participation Fee ONCE for the entire year (even if playing more than one sport) plus each individual sport fee to cover the team operating budget. 2.  Using the Online Schools Payment platform incurs a convenience charge. Mike Mezzio, the Athletic Director, will offset this cost by providing two free game tickets to a home sporting event. 2017-18 Sports Participation & Team Operating Budget Fees  .pdf

Riverwood Athletic Association (RAA) The RAA is the umbrella organization for every team sport. The all-volunteer 501(c)(3) organization's mission is to sustain and promote the ongoing participation of Riverwood High School youth in quality athletics. Donations made to the RAA for Membership will be targeted for larger capital and athletic facility improvements that benefit multiple sports such as a turf practice field with lights, a new sound system for the stadium, and a video scoreboard. Those wishing to make a donation to a specific sport must first join the RAA at the $500 or $1,000 membership level. learn more about RAA membership

Each student athlete and their parent(s) must log in and create an Arbiter Athlete account.

The accounts are secure and are accessible only to authorized personnel: the Athletic Director, Athletic Trainer, and Head Coaches.

*NOTE:  Arbiter Athlete replaces the PrivIT online program which was in effect from June 2015 through April 2018.
