BY ASHLY MCGLONE

— About 100 track and field athletes at Eastlake High School were charged for uniforms, spirit gear and participation in track meets — fees that will be refunded under the law.The state Constitution guarantees free public schools, and the state Supreme Court has ruled that extracurricular activities such as sports and band are included.
The charges came to light when Eastlake resident Stewart Payne spoke about the fees at the March 14 meeting of the Sweetwater Union High School District.
