Your tuition is due every month on the 1st. If your tuition is not paid by the 10th, you will be charged a $25.00 late fee on the 11th. If tuition is not paid by the end of the month, your child will not be allowed to attend further classes until the balance is paid or financial arrangements have been made. An additional $25 will be charged for every 30 days the account remains past due. Monthly tuition reminders are not sent.

Tuition is NOT pro-rated for holidays, illness, vacations, or unexcused absences.

If you should decide to cancel enrollment, please contact the office asap as you will continue to be charged unless notified otherwise; and if you decide to re-enroll you will be responsible for any unpaid tuition and fees.

Pick-Up and Drop-Off Policy
