Withdrawing From FCS
Withdrawal Policy
Any child that has attended at least one school day at Florida Christian School must adhere to the following withdrawal policy:
- A parent or legal guardian must complete this Withdrawal Form as soon as it is decided that the child will no longer be attending Florida Christian School.
- If school is in session at the time of withdrawal and the student has been attending school that academic year, all Florida Christian School property (i.e. textbooks, equipment, and library books) must be returned within 2 school days of submitting the withdrawal form.
- All outstanding fees must be paid within 2 school days of submitting the withdrawal form .
- No school records will be released to the parents/guardians or to the transferring school until the withdrawal process has been completed.
- Following a student’s withdrawal or dismissal, school records and report cards will not be released to families with a past-due financial account. Students who attend any portion of a month are responsible for the full month’s tuition.
- Application Fees, Enrollment Fees, and the Campus Improvement and Security Fee are non-refundable and due in full, regardless of the payment plan selected or the withdrawal date. In addition, a $250 book fee will be charged for textbooks purchased for the student by the school.
- Families who withdraw or are dismissed will not receive a refund, except in cases where tuition has been paid more than one month in advance for periods after the withdrawal or dismissal date. This policy also applies to students withdrawing before school begins, including a charge of 10% of the total yearly tuition (calculated on the full, non-discounted tuition amount, without scholarships applied).
Please note that failure to attend class, even at the beginning of the school year is not a withdrawal and the above process must take place in order for a child to be considered withdrawn from Florida Christian School.
At any given time, a parent requests transcripts or reference forms for another school, the parent/guardian will be notified via email that they have 48 hours to contact Florida Christian School in the event that they wish for their child to continue to attend Florida Christian School.
If a child has been withdrawn from Florida Christian School and wishes to re-enroll, the child must reapply as a new student. A child’s previous enrollment in Florida Christian School will have no bearing on future seat availability at any given time.
