Tuition / Fees
REGISTRATION FEE
The registration fee (non-refundable) helps to offset annual administrative student costs and is due when the completed enrollment forms are returned to the school office. The enrollment procedures cannot continue until the registration fee is received. When accompanied by all enrollment forms this fee reserves a spot in the waiting pool.
PAYMENT INFORMATION
Application and Registration fees are due and payable before a student will be officially enrolled in school. Tuition payment is due June 1 each year. Tuition is an annual amount. As a convenience, payments may be made twice a year or monthly through an automatic withdrawal plan. All tuition assistance accounts must be through an automatic withdrawal plan or, in the case of employees, through payroll deduction.
Delinquent accounts are neither to the best interest of the school nor to the parents or guardians of the student(s). Once an account is past due, the Headmaster’s Office will make contact with the responsible parties to discuss the delinquent account and counsel, where necessary. Once the account has become delinquent more than thirty days, the Headmaster will arrange a personal meeting with the responsible parties. If an acceptable payment plan is not agreed upon, the student will be withdrawn from school.
The delinquent accounts will continue to be the obligations of the parties responsible to the school. The Headmaster or his designate will make every reasonable effort to maintain contact with the responsible parties in an effort to ultimately collect the amount due the school. Board authorization shall be necessary before any legal proceedings or other collection efforts (beyond those previously addressed) are made.
Failure of the responsible parties to pay late fees, returned check fees, and other fees associated with penalties due to lack of funds will result in the student’s grades being withheld at the end of the next grading period, unless prior arrangements have been made with the Headmaster or his designate.
No accounts owing to the school will be forgiven or “written-off” without direct action by the School Board. The Headmaster or his designate will report to the Board all delinquent accounts over ninety days.
Checks returned by the bank will be assessed a handling fee. Returned checks will be automatically re-deposited once. If the check still does not clear, the payer will be requested to pick up the check and make the payment (including handling fees) in cash or with a cashier’s check.
TCPS TRANSFER DISCOUNT
Any student coming from any Christian school (grades 7-12) will be admitted to TCPS at a minimum of 75% of the TCPS tuition or their current tuition up to the TCPS current tuition (whichever is higher) amount; plus paying all fees. This discount is good as a one time only per student discount.
