Important Notes
Outstanding Balances
Participants with unpaid balances for past programs (including Before & After the Bell, field trips, vacation weeks, or summer camps) are not eligible to register. Any registrations made with an unpaid balance will be automatically canceled.
Withdrawals
If you withdraw before the first day, a $100 withdrawal fee per child will be deducted from your refund.
Late Payments
Tuition is due weekly. If payments are late, your child will not be able to attend until the balance and late fees are paid in full.
Schedule Changes
This program may adjust in response to changes in the Portland Public Schools calendar.
