A Few Things to Know:
- Enrolling in FACTS: The first and most immediate item is that you must enroll in the FACTS system and choose your payment plan. You will create your log in credentials, choose, and select your payment plan. It only takes a few minutes to enroll and the website is very user- friendly.
- Payment Dates and Plans: Our payment dates remain as they have been in the past, the 10th of the month. If this is a difficulty for you please let us know and we can provide an option for you. Once parents are enrolled, we will enter your rates.
- Convenience & Security: Your payments are processed through a secure electronic funds transfer. Automatic payments can be made from a checking or savings account or from a variety of credit cards. You can choose to have email reminders sent in advance of your payment due date if preferred.
- Peace of Mind Insurance: FACTS offers this option for only $20 per year per family. In the event of death of the responsible party or spouse, the remaining tuition balance owed for the current school year is paid to the school.
- Your Consumer Portal: You may check your personal online account anytime to view your payment history, next scheduled payment, change between financial accounts, or make a payment online. One of the universal challenges in education is achieving a balance between our educational mission and financial stability. It is precisely for this reason we have enlisted the services of FACTS Management Company. With FACTS, the school continues to maintain decision making control. As always, we will continue to work with families should special circumstances or “hardship” cases arise during the school year.
