Tuition Policy

You are responsible for tuition as long as your child is registered in our program. If you are planning to withdraw your child from the school, you must let us know by the 15th of the month before you plan to leave, or you will be responsible for the next month’s tuition. There are NO make-up days due to family vacation, illness, or closings due to emergency situations or inclement weather. No other child may attend in place of your child. If, as a parent, you choose to not bring your child to school during a particular time of the year, unless you withdraw your child from the school, you are responsible for tuition. 

For your convenience, you may authorize an automatic payment from your checking account. Tuition will be pulled on the 15th of each month starting with August 15th and ending on April 15th. You may also choose to pay monthly with a check, cash, or Venmo @CHUM-Preschool. If you choose this method of payment, the first payment will be due July 1st followed by eight payments on the 15th of the each month starting with September and ending in April. 

Non-payment of tuition is grounds for immediate dismissal from the program. Timely payments are essential for continued enrollment at CHUM Preschool, however, if you anticipate difficulty with paying on time, please discuss the matter with the director immediately. 

Tuition checks can be made payable to CHUMP and deposited in the black mailbox that is located outside the director’s office.
