Tuition
Tuition may be paid in monthly installments or by the semester (opening day of school and February
1st). A semester is 5 months. Those choosing to pay tuition by the semester will receive a 5% discount on the semester’s
tuition, provided payment is received by September 10th and February 10th. If payment is not received by the 10th, no discount
will be offered.
Monthly installments are due and payable on the first of the month. A 10% late fee on the installment
will be assessed if payment is not received by the 10th day of the month. Any late fee must be paid with the late installment.
In addition, interest at the rate of 10% per annum will accrue and be assessed on any outstanding balance starting the first
day of the next month. Non-payment after one month may result in your child’s dismissal from JED. If payment cannot
be made on time, please notify the Director as soon as possible but no later than the 10th day of the month.
The
monthly installment does not vary depending on the number of school days in any month. Holidays, vacations, and other reasons
are taken into consideration in determining the yearly tuition. There is no adjustment in the installment for days that your
child misses as a result of illness or activities.
If your child(ren) are withdrawn from JED before the semester
ends or their attendance schedule is reduced, you will be refunded tuition on a pro-rated (month-by-month) basis.

will be returned.
Scholarships:
There are a limited number of scholarships to JED. Generally these
are made available to families that qualify for the free or reduced lunch program. We encourage those that might qualify
to talk to the program director about applying.
