Monthly tuition payments will be calculated using a 12-month payment period. If students are enrolled after June 1, monthly tuition payments will be adjusted accordingly (e.g. an 11-month payment period for July applicants, a 10-month payment period for August applicants, etc.). Please note that tuition must be paid in full by the end of the school year.
Tuition includes: Traditional tuition expenses; curriculum expenses, and field trips taken during the school day.
Tuition does not include: Student’s personal supply needs (notebooks, pencils, etc.) and optional expenses such as individual and class photographs, overnight field trips, and extracurricular activities.
Multiple Student Discounts
Trinity Christian Academy continues to offer this simple form of financial assistance to help make Christian education more affordable to families with particularly high tuition costs. If you have been blessed financially and do not need this assistance, you may donate it back to Trinity by checking a box on the Enrollment Form to waive the multi-student discount. We will count the amount that would have been discounted as a tax-deductible donation to Trinity.
4. TUITION PAYMENT
Tuition may either be paid in full by the start of the school year (half in June, half in August) or by monthly payments made through the FACTS Management. The annual cost of using FACTS Management will be $38 per family for automatic bank withdrawal and monthly invoicing is $45 annually, per family. If your payment is made in full by the first day of school, the fee to FACTS is not applicable. The first tuition payment for the 2010-2011 school year is due in June, 2010.
Enrollment at Trinity is for the entire academic year. Therefore, payment of tuition is required for the full year including cases of disciplinary dismissal or voluntary withdrawal, except by Board approval, such as when a family moves from the service areas of Trinity. Records will be released after all accounts are paid in full.
