Tuition & Registration The tuition for participation in the school shall be $220 per year, payable $20 per month, August- June for each family enrolled. There is also a one time registration fee (non-refundable) of $30 per family . In order to maintain the off-campus school as an effective ministry of the church the number of families participating shall be kept to a workable number of families, unless the board feels that the number should be expanded to encompass more families. Changes may have to be made in the price of tuition if the number gets very large to compensate the off-campus administrator in some way for the additional number. The amount that East Lake UMC receives in the breakdown, will not be reduced. Breakdown of Tuition Use 20% of tuition will be paid to the Church. 20% will be placed in a fund to be used to purchase Library books, ... , for the Academy 50% will be to pay the Administrator of the Academy 10% will remain in the account to pay for postage, printing and other items The Academy administrator shall help the parents to coordinate field trips, play groups and other activities of interest to the group, as needs arise. The administrator, along with the Faculty Advisory Board members will also plan monthly Faculty meetings where parents can turn in monthly progress and attendance reports, share ideas insights and concerns. The emphasis of the meetings will be to uplift and encourage one another in our common goals for our families and school. By providing the meeting place for out faculty meetings the Church is providing a Ministry to the participants enabling them to instruct their own children in the way that agrees with their own personal religious and educational philosophy. Tuition Payment Tuition is required and due on the First Tuesday of every month, and is payable at the faculty meetings, August through June. January tuition is due within the first week of January, and should be mailed to the address of the Administrator by that time in order to avoid the late fee. (Families may prepay for the year $220, if they desire, but there would be no refund should they withdraw for any reason.) A late fee of $10.00, per month late, will be charged, if payment has not been received, and postmarked by 5 days after the due date. (note, if your payment is 2 months late.. that is 2 late fees, and so on... ) If tuition goes unpaid for 2 consecutive months without prior arrangements having been made with the administrator, the matter will be taken under consideration by the Academy school board and the family may be dismissed from the roll. If a child is withdrawn from the rolls for any reason, the local school officials in that child's school zone will be notified that they are no longer enrolled in our Church School. Payment for any outside classes offered to students enrolled in our Academy are due upon signing up for the classes, unless the instructor and parents have made an agreement otherwise. Also there will be no refunds for such classes, unless the instructor and parents have an agreement otherwise.
