ENROLLMENT OPTIONS

PAYMENT DUE DATE

Tuition is divided into 9 equal monthly payments regardless of program days offered or used; there is no tuition adjustment due to holidays, calamity days or absences due to vacation, illness, or behavior concerns.

Tuition is due on the 1st of each month:

August 1
September 1
October 1
November 1
January 1
February 1
March 1
April 1
May 1

There are no payments due in December or June.

PAYMENT METHOD

Tuition will be paid electronically through the established New Albany-Plain Local Schools family payment system for checking, savings, or credit card payments. Because monthly tuition is paid separately from the registration portal, recurring monthly payments cannot be established during the enrollment process.

Tuition payments will not be accepted on site at Eagle’s Nest. 

Families can set up separate accounts to manage individual tuition payments, but monthly payments cannot be divided. 

ADDITIONAL FEES

Tracking Fee

In an effort to maintain student safety, families will pay a tracking fee of $5.00 each time Eagle's Nest must contact the family of an absent student when Eagle's Nest had not been contacted by the 1 P.M. deadline. This is in addition to any school reporting procedures.

Contract Change Fee

If a child care option is changed within a school year, a $30 contract change fee will be assessed. Change in service hours must be requested in writing no less than 15 days before the expected change. Change requests will be honored if there is space within the program. Students will be placed on the waiting list if space is unavailable.

Late Payment Fee
After the 15th of the month, a $25.00 late fee will be assessed. After the 1st day of the month following nonpayment, child care services will be suspended and all past due balances must be paid in order to return to Eagle's Nest. The child care slot may become available to waitlisted families.

Late Pickup Fees

A late fee of $5.00 for each portion of a 5-minute interval after 6:00 p.m. when a child is not picked up will be assessed.

Late fees must be paid within 5 business days.

Late fees are as follows:

6:01 pm - 6:05 pm - $5.00
6:06 pm - 6:10 pm - $10.00
6:11 pm - 6:15 pm - $15.00
Fees after 5th occurrence will be doubled.

Frequent late pick-ups may result in termination of eligibility for Eagle’s Nest services. 

CANCELLATIONS, WITHDRAWALS AND REFUNDS

Cancellations for Eagle’s Nest prior to the start of the school year must be made by Tuesday, August 1, 2023 at 3:00 p.m. EST in order to avoid being responsible for the first tuition payment. 

Withdrawal from Eagle’s Nest must be made in writing to eaglesnest@napls.us no later than 15 days prior to the next tuition payment date in order to adequately plan for concerns such as student transitions and transportation arrangements. Notifications provided less than 15 days before the next tuition payment due date will result in either a partial charge or a partial refund and a delay in obtaining school district transportation.

Students may be re-enrolled within a school year if space is available; a $75 re-enrollment fee will be assessed. 

Refunds will be issued for program withdrawal when tuition has been paid in advance and the Coordinator determines that it is in the student’s or program’s best interest for the student to no longer participate in Eagle’s Nest.

No refunds will be given for the following time periods: November 1st - January 1st and May 1st - June 1st.
