New Philadelphia Preschool Financial Policies
- Registration fee is due at the time of registration and is nonrefundable. All accounts must be current to register for the upcoming school year.
- Tuition is divided into 9 equal payments and is not based on the number of days in a month. September tuition is due in June (or at time of registration for enrollees after June). Starting in October, tuition is paid for the current month of school. Invoices are sent via email. We prefer tuition to be paid through ACH automatic drafts, but we will also accept cash (exact change) and check.
- Late tuition payments are subject to a late fee of $30 if paid after the 10th of the month. After the 15th, the fee increases to $55. After the 20th, your child will not be able to return to school until the fees are paid. Fees are added monthly until the late tuition is paid.
- Tuition adjustments are given when NPP must quarantine a cohort due to illness. The adjustment is calculated on a daily basis and is given as credit for the next applicable month. Adjustments are not given for other reasons, such as when a child quarantines at home due to a sick family member or for siblings whose cohort remains open.
- Returned check/ACH payments are subject to a fee of $30. Two returned checks/ACH payments will result in having to pay by certified check or cash.
- Travel is an important part of our lives. However, we do not make tuition payment exceptions due to travel. Monthly tuition payments are required to hold your child’s space.
- Health forms and immunization records are required every school year, even for children who attended the prior year. Forms not returned by 30 calendar days after the start of school are subject to a $20 fee. After 60 calendar days, the fee increases to $50.
- Late pick ups at the regular school day (after 12:10 pm) or after lunch bunch (after 1 pm) will result in a $10 late fee for the first incident, $15 for the second incident, and $20 for the third. After 3 late lunch bunch pick ups, the child will no longer be able to stay for lunch bunch. For late pickups that occur more than 10 minutes after the late cut off, the fee for the incident automatically increases to $20, and $5 will be added to that fee for each additional 5 minutes of wait time. Please note that state law forbids us from keeping children more than 4 hours – please help us comply with this by being timely with pickup.
- Withdraws must be made in writing with 30 days notice. Registration fee is non refundable. Tuition during the 30 day period must still be paid unless we are able to fill the vacant spot.
- Hardships do arise. Please contact our office if you are experiencing a financial or medical hardship as it relates to tuition or attendance to discuss alternative arrangements.
