Pre-enrollment Policy

For families who enroll at Interlake more than 30 days in advance we require the pre-payment of one month’s tuition due at the time you accept the spot.

In the event that a family that has pre-enrolled and paid their tuition in advance is unable to attend, enrollment can be withdrawn at 30 or more days notice without penalty.

Families who withdraw within 30 days or less of their start date will not be refunded, unless Interlake is able to enroll another family prior to the originally scheduled start date. We will work with each family and do our best to accommodate changes. We reserve the right to withhold the entire prepayment amount (or a percentage thereof) in case we are not able to fill the space in time.

The deposit and registration fee are due by your start date to register your child.

Refunds are NOT provided for absences, vacations or any day(s) that the center is scheduled to be closed, including legal holidays.  We must pay our regular staff whether or not your child attends the center on any given day.  Refunds are not given for emergency closures.

Leaving the center

Please provide at least four weeks notification (in writing) to the Interlake administration prior to withdrawing your child.  Your cooperation will help minimize any financial loss either for you or the center.  Your deposit can be applied to your child’s last month of tuition when written notice has been given at least four weeks in advance.  If your child will be leaving prior to graduating from our preschool program, the final month of tuition that you owe Interlake begins when we receive your written notification of intent to withdraw your child.  If you fail to provide at least four weeks written notice, Interlake reserves the right to keep all or part of your deposit to minimize our financial loss.

Subsidy
