Annual Capital Improvement Fee - $300 per FAMILY/year
Tuition may be paid:
- Annually and is due on June 1.
- On the 12 month plan conveniently billed beginning May 25th (Full-day programs only).
Tuition is due on the 25th of each month, and is late after the 5th*. If payment is not received by the 5th, a late fee of $50.00 per child will automatically be charged to the tuition account. When a student’s account has accumulated three past due amounts within a school year, parents will be required to pay cash on the 5th of each month. If payment is not received within 30 days of the due date, all students must be kept home until payment is brought up to date.*
* If payments are not current by May 5, students must be kept at home until payment is brought up to date. In addition, school records and report cards will not be released until all financial obligations are paid in full. These policies are necessary to ensure Vidalia Heritage Academy is able to meet its financial obligations.
SCHOLARSHIPS / FINANCIAL AID
Multiple Children:
1st Child — Full tuition
2nd Child — 5% off
3rd Child — 10% off
4th Child — 40% off
All Scholarship and Financial Aid is limited and is granted on a first come/first serve basis including the Multiple Child Scholarships. Upon registration of multiple children available scholarships are granted on Tuition alone. You may also choose to not accept the multiple child scholarship and allow us to bless another family with this assistance.
How to apply:
1) Financial Aid is first come first serve.
2) You must register your child before you are eligible to apply for Financial Aid.
ACTIVITY / TECHNOLOGY FEES
Rather than “nickel and dime-ing” our parents constantly about extra activities and costs during the year, an Activity Fee will be assessed for each student. The Activity Fees cover the normal costs of the following:
Field Trips (excluding meals), Projects, Special Assemblies, Scrapbooks, Birthdays, the Class Auction Project, Thanksgiving/Christmas Parties, program and field day T-shirts, Yearbook, Red Folders, new technology in the classrooms, and internet access to grades, homework, news, and activities through Gradelink.
AFTER-SCHOOL CARE
The after-school program in Kindergarten – 12th Grade is available for the convenience of our parents. The charge is $8.00 per day and is assessed monthly and paid separately from tuition. If not paid current within 30 days your child will not be allowed to attend. You will be called to come and retrieve your child from after-school care. After-school care begins each day at 3:35 pm.
PERFORMANCES
Your child will be part of at least one major performance during the year. This will be a ticketed event costing a minimum of $10.00 per person. Students will be required to sell a minimum number of tickets to the event as a part of our fundraising efforts.
SUPPLY LIST
A supply list will be mailed during the summer months for each school year for basic general supplies in each class.
FUNDRAISING
Vidalia Heritage Academy is a tuition-based school and exists on the basis of fees, donations and fundraisers. Fundraisers sponsored by the school are of necessity but will be kept to a minimum number. PARTICIPATION IN FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES IS MANDATORY.*
*Families may opt out of fundraising activities by donating $1000 to the school, $750 of which will be tax-deductible. Families will also receive tickets to performances (based on allotment), and other material goods that students would otherwise be required to sell.
