Charter Funds
Important Information for Charter School Families:
- Charter students may use their educational funds to pay instructors for classes. Before enrolling, please confirm with your charter school that these funds can also cover the registration fee. If not, you’ll need to pay the registration fee directly to the instructor using private funds.
- Students can enroll in a class before receiving their charter funds. However, proof of a Purchase Order (P.O.) from your charter school must be emailed to the instructor(s) before the first day of class each semester. Note that students enrolled in a core class for the fall semester will automatically be enrolled in the spring semester, requiring you to resubmit the P.O. for the second semester.
- If the P.O. does not cover the full cost of the class, parents are expected to pay the remaining balance directly to the instructor before the first day of class. Failure to provide proof of a P.O. or to pay any outstanding balance before the class begins may result in the student being dropped from the class.
- Once a class has started, parents are responsible for the full semester’s tuition, regardless of whether the student withdraws from the course for any reason. In the event that a charter school cancels the P.O., parents will be held responsible for any remaining balance.
