• Fees are due weekly regardless of attendance

Payments may be made by credit card or bank account using the Procare parent app.  Payments may also be made by check, money order or cash at the EDEP office. 

Please DO NOT drop checks,money orders or cash off in the front office or with your child’s teacher.

Each Monday, after attendance, a late payment fee of $10 will be added to all unpaid accounts.  Partial payments will be assessed a late fee.

Two weeks of unpaid fees will result in dismissal from EDEP and your space forfeited to a family on the waitlist.

Families will be charged each week regardless of attendance.

Registration Fee

Enrolling in EDEP, a nonrefundable annual registration fee of $25.00 per child, per school is due at registration. If a child withdraws from EDEP, a new registration fee will be charged.

Late Pick-Up Fees

Beginning at closing time, late pick-up fees will be charged. The rate is $15.00 per child for every 15 minutes you are late picking your child up. Examples:  If your child is picked up at 5:31 there will be a $15 late fee added to your account.  After 5:31 your account will be charged a $15 late fee for every 15 minutes after.  Example if your child is picked up at 5:46 you will be charged a $30 late fee.

Habitual tardiness (2 times) in picking up children will result in dismissal from the program. Parents must call the EDEP to notify staff of any extenuating circumstances. Pick up after 7:00pm will result in immediate dismissal.

The clock from our sign out system will be used to determine the time.

Withdrawal

Weekly Fees are charged each Monday morning. An official EDEP withdrawal form must be submitted to the site Coordinator prior to noon to cancel the current week fees. Students wishing to re-enroll (if space allows) will be charged a new registration fee of $25. Any refund request must be submitted to the Site Coordinator via email within 30 days of last attendance.
