In the event that tuition payments CANNOT be made in a timely manner, parents must contact the business office at the time payment becomes past due. If a child transfers during the year, tuition will be refunded or billed on a quarterly basis. (i.e., a child transferring in December would be responsible for 2 quarters of tuition.) A fee of $35 will be charged for late payments.
Overdue Tuition Policy
1. There will be a charge of thirty-five dollars ($35) for returned checks and auto payment returns. (subject to change)
2. Payments will first be applied to all past due balances on record before being applied to current balances owed. This includes all payments for Hot Lunch.
3. Any and all requests for changes in tuition payments, payment intervals, deferments, refunds or tuition assistance must be submitted to the Business office in writing five (5) days prior to the regular payment date.
4. If payment is not received within five (5) days of the due date, a late fee of thirty-five dollars ($35) will be charged.
5. The following steps will be taken in regards to delinquent financial accounts:
All families must be current in their payment of tuition according to the provisions of their selected payment agreement. If accounts are in arrears greater than 31 days the Business Office will reach out to that family to help them make a plan to become current. It is possible that a student may be asked to leave the school until the account is made current. In addition, students will not receive report cards, permanent records will not be released, and students will not be eligible to participate in graduation exercises.
Re-Enrollment applications will be placed on a Hold status until all balances are paid from the previous year. If payment is not possible, suitable arrangements must be made through the Business Office.
6. All requests for payment arrangements on school accounts must be submitted in writing and signed off on by the Business Office and all financially responsible parties. Once signed, all provisions of a payment plan must be followed or account balances will become immediately due in full and action will be taken as outlined above.
