Fees & Enrollment

FEES:

• Joining the group is free. We are on Facebook as well and will continue to build our platforms as our community grows!

  ​​​

• Fees for any field trips, social outings, or volunteer events will be dependent on each activity.

  ​​

• A Family Registration fee of $32 is asked each term per family upon registration to secure your children's spaces in classes. These funds assist with group expenses such as fees for insurance, supplies, website, and more. If all registered classes are cancelled by The Homeschool Collective and no alternate classes are preferred, the fee will be refunded. Withdrawal is non-refundable.  To activate your registration, please send this $32 family registration fee through our payment link found on the registration page. Please be sure your children's names are listed in its comments, as well as your name if it is a business account or maiden name. Alternatively, please connect with Julia Hancock through web chatbox, phone text, or Messenger for check or cash options. Registration and enrollments may continue to be accepted until the 1st day of classes, if space allows.​

• A Building Fee is asked each term per family, regardless of location. We split the facility rent among all participating families each term. Facility fees are dependent on location agreement and are subject to change per term as dictated by the facility owners.  All enrolled families are asked to help meet this cost by sending their term donation of $32-$50 during 1st 2 weeks of classes.  Thank you to those families who are able and elect to donate more than the minimum $32! It is our hope to continue to keep this fee as low as possible for all families.  As we continue to grow and meet the needs of our homeschool communities, we continue to look for low-cost options that fit our size, purpose, and needs.

• There is a button on the Registration page for families who would like to pay both the Registration & Building fees together for that term. We hope this is helpful!

 

​

ENROLLMENT:​

• Class Enrollment fees will be paid directly to the teacher, who will contact you with payment details after you've submitted your registration form located on this website.  Class fees for the 8-10 week term will cover basic materials, and compensate the teacher's time and efforts planning and providing a fabulous quality class experience! 

  ​​

• Please pay your teachers promptly, once you receive their Enrollment Email with payment instructions. Teachers will hold your child's registered space for 1 week after sending instructions, before offering space to the next registering or waitlisted student.  Early Payments will secure your child's space as classes fill quickly! 

  ​

• Our group does offer support if a  family is experiencing temporary financial hardship due to extenuating circumstances. Teachers are encouraged to offer a payment plan of up to 50% off 1 space per class, for families who qualify; however, final decisions will be at the discretion of the teacher.  Please comment on your registration form and you will be contacted by Julia Hancock,  Academic Coordinator, to discuss this confidential issue privately. 

  ​

•  A Late Payment fee of $10 will be added to your total, if fees are unpaid passed the due date. Please settle your fees early to secure your child's space.  Contact your teacher if you need to discuss your situation. 

 

REFUNDS:​

• We hope your children enjoy their enrolled classes.  If you have an issue with a class or teacher, please discuss your situation by contacting your teacher, or Julia Hancock. We understand sometimes a class just isn't a good fit. If you choose to withdraw your child from a class, teachers are encouraged to give a partial refund for withdrawn students. If you withdraw your child before the 1st week of the class, you could be refunded 75% of your total class fees upon request.  If you withdraw during weeks 1-2, 50% of the class fees could be refunded to you upon request.  

  This partial amount compensates the teacher for planning and materials already purchased.  Final decision on any refund amount will be at the discretion of the teacher.  We hope you stay to receive the full benefits of each class!  There will be no refund by week 3, as it will be too late in the semester to refill the space. All refund requests must be made by week 3 and transactions completed before the end of that term.

 

Our goal is to keep expenses as low as possible, while still offering exceptional classes by experienced and passionate teachers.  Thank you for giving your child the opportunity to experience these high quality academic and enrichment homeschool classes and for being an integral part of our Homeschool Collective!
