Payment Schedule and Tuition

You are advised of your tuition when you enroll at The Fox Den Academy. In the event that tuition rates are increased, you will be provided with the new rate at least one month prior to the effective date of the increase. You may pay tuition bi-monthly, monthly, quarterly, or annually.

  • Bi-monthly tuition is due on Monday mornings and is due the 1st and 15th business days of the month.
  • Monthly tuition is due on the 1st business day of the month.
  • Quarterly tuition is due on August 1, October 15, January 1, and March 15.
  • Annual tuition is due on August 1.

A registration fee is required to enroll in The Fox Den Academy. Registration Fee is $100.

There will be NO Security Fees due in advance of the 24-25 school year.

Our center closes at 6:00 P.M. We expect that you will honor this closing time and pick up your child by closing. If you are going to be late due to an emergency, please call. We do not have staff scheduled to work after 6:00 PM. If you are late and we have received no emergency call you will be charged a late fee. The late pick-up fee is per minute per child, so if you are 15 minutes late and have 2 children, you will be charged the late fee times 2. This fee is due at the end of the week that you were late. For example, if you were late on Wednesday, the fee is due by Friday. If you do not pay the late fee, you will be charged a late payment fee. If this becomes habitual or you do not pay your late pick-up fee, your enrollment may be terminated.

Habitual late payments, refusal to pay late fees or return check charges may result in termination of services.

We offer a sibling discount

Attendance and Time Off

In the Enrollment Agreement you stipulate the days that your child will be attending The Fox Den Academy. These are firm dates that cannot be changed. For example, if a holiday is on a Tuesday, a day you normally attend, you can’t change your day that week to a Wednesday. In addition, if you choose not to attend the day you are scheduled you cannot attend on a different day. Employees are scheduled according to the time you have contracted for. You will not be reimbursed for holidays, sick days or days that your child doesn’t attend but you have contracted for. If you do have a conflict with days and need to change days, please let us know as soon as possible.

If possible we would appreciate advance notice when your child will be away from school.

Termination Of Care

Parent Initiated

We recognize that there are times when you no longer will require our services. We require a written two week notice to ensure that your security deposit is applied to your last two week’s of tuition.

School Initiated

Unfortunately there may be times when we need to act on our Expulsion Agreement. Reasons for school initiated termination may include:

  • failure to pay tuition in a timely manner,
  • failure to pay late fee charges that have been assessed,
  • habitual late pick-up,
  • child behavior,
  • parent conduct and
  • deportment.

If this occurs, we will give you two weeks notice to find alternate care. Your security will be applied to these last two weeks of attendance. However, we reserve the right to terminate services immediately in cases of extreme negative behavior by a child or parent. In those cases where immediate expulsion is warranted, your security deposit will not be refunded.
