To determine how much money each student will receive, we need to divide the total amount earned by the number of students.

Given that the fifth-grade class earned $428.81 and there are 23 students, we can perform the following calculation:

$428.81 ÷ 23 = $18.648695652173913

However, we are asked to round the answer to the nearest hundredth. So, when rounding to the nearest hundredth, the final answer is:

$18.65

Therefore, each student will receive $18.65.
