Enrollment Information

 
Registration

Parents who are interested in applying for a space in the Weekday School should submit an Enrollment Registration Form with the required registration fee. A drawing is held in the spring to determine classroom needs for the following fall. Enrollment is based on priority levels. First priority is given to Trinity Presbyterian church members and staff, second priority is given to current families in the school, and third priority is given to new families. If spaces are available after the drawing, enrollment may occur at any time during the school year. A registration fee MUST accompany the registration form in order for the child to be considered enrolled.

Registration fees are non-refundable – except in the case of being placed on the “waiting list” if requested class is already filled when child’s application is drawn in lottery. In this case, the child is placed on the appropriate waiting list and the registration fee can be returned to the parent.

Enrollment

Class offerings are subject to change due to family/staffing needs.
Class ratios and maximum number allowed are as follows:

Toddlers: 8 children, 2 teachers
Twos: 12 children, 2 teachers
Threes: 15 children, 2 teachers
Fours: 18 children, 2 teachers
TK: 18 children, 2 teachers

Fees

Registration Fees are $100 per child for non-church member families and are $90 per child for church/staff member families. A registration fee is charged anytime during the year, regardless of when the child is enrolled. This fee is non-refundable and is separate from the monthly tuition fee. The maximum registration paid per family is $200.

Tuition Fees are based on the number of days per week a child is enrolled. In order to hold your space for the following school year in our Toddler – Fours class, we require one month’s tuition to be paid in advance by May 1. This advance deposit is non-refundable and will be applied to the May tuition payment at the end of the school year. If enrolling in our Transitional Kindergarten class, we require two months tuition to be paid in advance – the first payment due by April 1 and the second due by May 1. These will be applied to September and May’s tuition of that school year.

Late Pick-Up Fees will incur a charge of $1.00 per minute after 1:05. Any child whose parents have not arrived by 1:05 will be brought to the Director so that his/her teachers may complete their end of the day classroom duties. Parents may pick up their child in the office. This late fee will be added to the monthly statement.

Tuition

Tuition is due on the first of each month. Parents will receive monthly statements at the beginning of each month in the child’s folder outside the classroom or in the communication folder in the child’s backpack. Checks should be made payable to Trinity Presbyterian Weekday School and may be mailed or placed in one of the lock boxes located near the administrative offices. Tuition Express (automatic payment plan) is also a convenient method of payment offered at Trinity. We highly encourage participation in this program. Please contact the WDS office for further information or to enroll.

Payments received after the 15th of the month are considered delinquent and a LATE FEE of $25 will be charged to the account. All checks returned for “non-sufficient funds” are charged a handling fee of $20 per check. If a family has two returned checks within the same school year, the Weekday School office will require future payments to be made in cash, by money order, or by cashier’s check.

If tuition fees are not paid within 30 days of their due date, the Weekday School reserves the right to terminate the child’s enrollment. Trinity Weekday School will make every effort to work with a family should a financial crisis arise. Please see the Director for further assistance.

Withdrawal from School

We value our relationship with you and your child. We hope your child will be a member of our school family for a long time. Unfortunately, there are times when we must terminate our relationship. These include nonpayment of tuition by parent, abuse of staff, children, or property of Trinity Presbyterian Church, chronic abuse of the Weekday School policies, and the inability of the staff to adequately care for or meet the child’s needs in a group setting. In all cases except nonpayment of tuition, a two-week notice will be given to terminate the child’s enrollment.

If a parent elects to remove their child from school, we ask that written notice be given to the Director 30 days in advance. Payment of tuition is expected for the notice period.
