FINANCIAL AGREEMENT:

2.  The first direct payment will be processed in August or September upon receipt of the authorization form.

3.  Families who enroll for the full year will have Direct Payments processed on the second business day of each month from either August through May or September through June. If a family begins enrollment after the first day of school, they will need to pay tuition prior to their child’s first day.

4.  Full payment of yearly tuition is due at the time of enrollment. While the option of paying in installments is offered as a convenience to parents, the full tuition amount is still required regardless of whether or not school is in session for the entire month. Failure to meet each payment may result in dismissal of students from RISE.

5.  Tuition payments are non-refundable.

6.   If a student is withdrawn from school before the end of the school year, a prorated tuition adjustment may be made only if the school receives a 15-day prior notice. Payments made towards tuition before the withdrawal are not refundable.

11. Effective August 2023: Families that pay with credit or debit card will be charged a 3% nominal processing fee on tuition payments. They may request to pay via a different method (check, ACH, etc.) by contacting financecoordinator@riseschools.education to avoid incurring these fees.
