Withdrawal Policy & Form
Withdrawal Policy
as written in registration forms and Handbooks
You must give a minimum 31 days notice if you intend to withdraw your child from school. You must complete the Child Withdrawal Notice form below.
Tuition will continue to be due for this notice period, and partial months of attendance must be paid in full. The Final Balance Deposit held will be applied to any charges for the term you are withdrawing once notice of withdrawal is received. Any remaining balance, if applicable, is due and may be deducted automatically. If you wish to withdraw your child for any reason or if your child is dismissed due to inability to follow the rules and regulations contained in the Parent Handbook, you will forfeit any paid deposit, tuition or fees.
End of Year Withdrawal Policy: During the school year, students may not withdraw for only the months of May and June. If you need to withdraw during the spring, withdrawal from school for the months of April-June would require notice by March 1. However, if notice is given after March 1, the student’s family is still required to pay the remainder of the year’s tuition payments (March 1, April 1, May 1).
Withdrawal Considerations
We understand that withdrawing your child is a significant decision, and we want to ensure that it is done with careful consideration. Before proceeding with the withdrawal process, we encourage you to explore the following considerations:
Request a Parent-Teacher Conference: If you have concerns about your child's progress or experience, we highly recommend scheduling a parent-teacher conference. This provides an opportunity to discuss any issues, explore solutions, and gain insights from your child's teachers.
Explore Alternatives: Are there any specific challenges or issues that prompted the decision to withdraw? Consider discussing potential solutions with our team to see if accommodations or adjustments can be made to better support your child's needs.
Evaluate Long-Term Goals: Consider how withdrawing your child will align with your family's long-term goals and aspirations. Reflect on the impact of the decision on your child's social, emotional, and academic development.
