Enrollment Process
TuitionProcessing Fee A non-refundable processing fee of $50 must be submitted along with each child’s application to the school. Tuition responsibility A parent or guardian for each child must sign a "Tuition Responsibility Form" upon registration. Billing dates are as follows:
March 1 $250 deposit due
Each family agrees to be responsible for
payment of tuition for the entire year. Tuition Refund No tuition will be refunded until the school is able to find a replacement for the withdrawing student.
When a student is found to replace the
withdrawing student, the portion of tuition covered by the replacement will be
refunded. For billing purposes, the Learning Circle School year consists of three terms. The terms’ date and their corresponding payment due dates are as follows:
September-November
payment due June 1 Unless payment for each term is received or special arrangements are made with the director or treasurer on or before the due date of each term, a student may not be permitted to attend class for that term.
A notice of the above school policy should be
mailed to every family with the first bill of the school year. All bills are to be mailed at least one month before the beginning of each term.
If tuition is not paid by the date stated on
the bill (30 days after receipt of the bill), the families in question will be
contacted by the director, who will reiterate the policy of prepayment for each
term, and offer assistance in setting up a payment plan. If the bill is still
not paid after a suitable time, the treasurer will call the families. Unless
special arrangements are made with the treasurer at this time, or the bill is
paid, the child may not be admitted for the upcoming term. September Applications begin to be accepted for the following academic year. Families are encouraged to visit the school while programs are in operation in order to collect good information about the program, briefly observe, and ask questions. A registration form will be available at this visit, along with other written information about the program. Returning the registration fee along with a non-refundable $50 processing fee begins the application process, but does not guarantee a placement. December Families whose children are currently enrolled return their registration forms with processing fees no later than December 1 in order to guarantee placement in the following academic year. If there have been more applications from prospective families than spaces, a lottery will determine the order of priority given to each family in the registration process. This lottery will be conducted on December 1. Families will be notified of available spaces and will be asked to submit a Tuition Responsibility form and pay a $250 deposit within two weeks of that notification in order to hold a space for the next fall. March
Family visits are scheduled so
that children and their families can meet teachers, play briefly in their
assigned classroom, and confirm that fall placements will meet each child’s
needs. |
