Questions to ask
- What are the current tuition and fee amounts for this school year, and when are they due?
- What specifically happens during the one-year probationary period, and can it end early?
- Is proof of regular church attendance required annually to stay enrolled, and what if our attendance changes mid-year?
- What does the twice-monthly enrichment schedule actually include, and is it mandatory or optional?
