School. Parents are responsible for understanding the following policies and should contact the EDP Director
for any further information needed.

Registration Policies
Contract registration
EDP contracts must be submitted and pre-paid before the contract term begins.
No refund is offered for contracted days not used, except as noted below under Refunds.
Individual contracted dates cannot be switched for other dates.
Advance registration
The “daily rate” applies for registrations received more than 2 school days in advance of the date of
service.
No refund is offered when a student does not attend EDP on a day when registered for EDP.
Drop-in registration
A higher fee applies to registrations received within 2 school days of the date of service (drop-in).
No refund is offered when a student does not attend on a day registered for EDP.
Same-day drop-in registrations
All requests for same-day EDP registrations MUST be communicated directly (in person or on the phone) with
the EDP Director.
EDP reserves the right to deny same-day registrations. We are proud of our ability to assist parents in need
of emergency arrangements, and will do our best to accommodate your request, given the staffing
available.
Registration changes
Once received by the EDP Director, non-contract registrations can be changed if the request is received
more than 2 days in advance of the date of service.
A “registration change fee” of $5 is charged for each change, and the original registration charge
removed.
For drop-in registrations and same-day drop-in registrations, no changes can be accepted.
Refunds
Refunds are not available for unused days due to absence, except for extended student illness. Contact
the EDP Director School to address specific situations.
EDP is closed on snow days and registration fees are refunded. Contract registration fees are refunded on
a pro-rated basis.
EDP registrations are refunded in the rare circumstances when the school decides to cancel the program
(during weather emergencies, for example).
Payment Policies
EDP charges are payable when you register, and prepayment is appreciated.
Any balance on an account (from additional charges or changes) is due at the end of the calendar month
to which the daily charges apply.
Parents are expected to make regular, monthly payments to EDP accounts to keep them “current.”
EDP account balance information is available by contacting the main office or the EDP Director.
