Payment Plan Option
We offer a 3-step payment plan for families who prefer not to pay the full amount upfront:
-
Step 1 ($100 Deposit): Due by May 15. Failure to pay this deposit by the deadline results in an immediate forfeit of your place at the co-op.
-
Step 2 ($100): Due at Orientation on August 28.
-
Step 3 ($100 Final Balance): Due in full by November 15. See 'Outstanding Fees & Second Semester Eligibility' below for more details.
Financial Responsibility
To participate in Our Lady of Walsingham Homeschool Co-op, your family must have no outstanding co-op or teacher fees. The annual registration fee supports the general operation of the co-op, including website maintenance, classroom supplies, and co-op parties and events. While membership grants families access to all co-op-wide parties and events, please note that field trips require an additional fee and are not covered by registration.
Outstanding Fees & Second Semester Eligibility
The November 15 deadline is firm. To maintain fairness to our community and teachers:
-
Administrative Hold: Any family with an outstanding balance (Registration or Teacher fees) after November 15 will be placed on hold.
-
Attendance Policy: Students will not be permitted to attend classes for the 2nd Semester until the final payment has been received in full.
-
Future Registration: Families with outstanding balances from previous years will not be permitted to register for the upcoming year until the balance is cleared.
Future Operational Costs (Pending)
We are currently evaluating the need for year-round security and facility usage fees (rent). If these become necessary, families will have two options:
-
Direct Fee: A set, one-time fee per family.
-
Fundraising: Participation in co-op-organized fundraising events to cover the family's portion.
How to Pay
Please Note: We are no longer accepting Venmo.
-
Cash: Payments may be made in person to a member of the Leadership Team. Please ensure you receive a receipt.
-
Check: Made payable to "Holy Martyrs Church" with "Our Lady of Walsingham Homeschool Co-op" in the memo line.
Refunds & Reimbursements
Refund Policy
We understand that plans can change during the summer months. If a family needs to withdraw from the co-op during the summer, we will offer a partial reimbursement of $150.
Please Note: No refunds will be issued after our first day of co-op (Orientation Day, August 28). By this date, all supplies for classes, liturgical events, and parties have already been purchased.
Teacher Reimbursements
To receive reimbursement for approved supplies:
-
Submit receipts via email to [email protected].
-
Reimbursements are only issued if the teacher’s own account has no outstanding fees.
-
Once verified, funds will be issued via Cash or Check.
