| D. TUITION, FEES and POLICIES FOR 2010-2011 Good Shepherd Catholic School is a parochial school under the auspices of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. The operating funds of the school are derived SOLELY from tuition, fees and the fundraising efforts of the parents of the school. The tuition and fees are established to meet the projected cost per pupil and the needs of the school and will assure the financial stability of the institution. REGISTRATION / ANNUAL FEE: Covers student assessments and/or the cost of processing applications and the Parent/Student Handbook, the cost of student accident insurance; student textbooks and general classroom supplies; student art, music and science fees; student activity fee including most field trips and bus transportation when appropriate; health fees and per student disaster fees; school publications including the School Yearbook and newsletters.

REFUNDS: Fees are non-refundable. Tuition is an ANNUAL obligation. Therefore, if withdrawing during the year, tuition and fees are not refunded. A meeting with the principal is strongly encouraged. PAYMENT OF TUITION: Since enrollment provides for an entire year’s education, all of the tuition and fees are to be paid prior to the commencement of the school year. 1. Payment in full – Registration Fees paid by May 22, 2010 Annual tuition paid in full by May 22, 2010 If you are unable to pay the tuition in full, there is a monthly payment plan available: 2. Monthly Payment Plan – Registration Fees paid by May 22, 2010. Tuition Payment #1 – 12 due every month, July 2010 – June 2011 or 10 month plan from September 2010 - June2011 The School uses SMART Tuition Management for the collection of the monthly payment. These payments are set up and deducted from your checking or savings account. You may also use AMEX, Discover or Mastercard for your monthly payment to SMART. They charge a once-yearly service fee of $43. Tuition is a yearly commitment. This monthly payment plan is for the convenience of families who would prefer to make payments, but this plan is not meant to suggest that payments correspond to a month-to-month enrollment. FAMILY SERVICE HOURS: The Family Service Hour program is an integral part of the school’s financial structure and the basic obligation of $400 (40 hours of service at $10.00 per hour per family) may be fulfilled in one of two ways: 1. $400 paid in full by May 22, 2011 , or 2. Fulfillment of 40 volunteer hours – Half to be completed by January 31, 2011 and the remaining hours to be completed by May 22, 2011. A record of monthly volunteer hours worked will be recorded and sent home. Any unserved hours will be billed at the rate of $10 per hour before the 2011 - 2012 school year registration. SCRIP: This program gives the school a percentage of your regular purchases, such as groceries and dining out. The school requires every family to register their Ralphs and Vons card and designate Good Shepherd as the recipient. The school receives quarterly reports from these markets with your contributions. In addition, each family is required to purchase gift cards through the Great Lakes Scrip Program. A record will be kept of your purchases and an adjustment to your fundraising fee will be considered if you make several purchases. LATE FEES: When payments are late it takes more time trying to collect this money. This costs the school extra money in hours spent calling parents about their obligations. If you sign up with the SMART monthly payment plan they will charge a $45 late fee if your payment does not go through at your bank and an ADDITIONAL $40 in NSF fees. To avoid this, please pay your tuition and fees on time. Thank you for your cooperation. REGISTRATION DAY FOR THE 2010-2011 SCHOOL YEAR: Saturday, May 22, 2010 You or your designee must come in to register on this day. Those who do not will be charged a $25 late fee each week until registration is completed. All registration fees and tuition must be current for the 2010-2011 school year no later than June 10, 2010. No money will be collected on the last day of school. TUITION AND FEE SUMMARY |
