Enrollment Agreement
Faith Christian Preschool operates on a carefully controlled budget. An integral part of maintaining that budget is the timely receipt of all registration, tuition, before & after school care, lunch and other fees. In order to accomplish this goal, the FCP/Church Board has adopted the following tuition payment policy. This policy will be STRICTLY ADHERED TO and enforced by the Administration.

The financial agreement is a document explaining the financial obligations for enrollment. At any time, if a family decides to withdraw from the school, the outstanding charges will not be cancelled. Final clearance will be complete once all financial obligations have been fulfilled to the satisfaction of the Administration.

Tuition payments will be made through your Brightwheel. Please see our Tuition Payments information sheet for more information about tuition payments.

All accounts must be current for families to register for the upcoming year.

Late Accounts
In order to maintain a high quality of education for each child, it is necessary that all tuition payments are made on Friday for the upcoming week and will be made on a weekly basis. Payments will be made electronically via mybrightwheel.com. Our teachers are hired on the assumption that each child will be in school: when he/she is absent payment must be received for this day as our expenses continue when the child is or is not present. In order to be fair to the parents & to protect our own financial structure, the FINANCIAL AGREEMENT that you signed upon registering your child is final.

Tuition payments after Monday would have a late fee of $10.00. If payment is not received by Monday afternoon, the student will have a NO ADMIT on Tuesday.

PLEASE NOTE: Tuition & curriculum fees must be current in order for a student to attend the first day of class. Should a student be withdrawn from FCP for any reason, application, registration, & curriculum fees are non-refundable in whole or in part.
Late Pick Up
A $15 late pick up fee will be charged for the first minute and $1 each additional minute & is expected to be paid upon arrival when the student is picked up.
Tardies
A $5 tardy fee will be charged for any student arriving at 9:01 am or later unless a doctor's note is presented.
Returning Families
Returning families registering for the upcoming year must have their accounts fully current to be eligible to re-register.

Registration will not be accepted if there is an unpaid balance on an account. Also, if a balance is incurred between current school year and new school year, the student(s) will not be allowed to attend until account is current.
