The After the Bell program fees are calculated at $10 per day. Families have the option of paying on a quarterly payment plan or paying for the program in full at the time of registration. All families registered in the After the Bell quarterly payment plan will be required to have a valid credit card on file. Families will have the choice to pay in-person prior to the payment due date or have our staff automatically charge the credit card on file the day after payment is due (Example, If payment is not received in-person by 12/5 the credit card on file will be charged the balance due, plus a transaction fee on 12/6). In-person transaction fees will be $3 per transaction, on-line automatic payments will be calculated at approximately 7% of your total transaction amount. All payments must be received, in-full, on or before the deadlines listed below. Should a payment not be received by the deadlines listed below, your spot will be forfeited to the next person on the waiting list for the entire school year.
