Tuition Rates
For the upcoming school year, tuition rates and fees are posted on our website. In addition to the tuition amount, an annual non-refundable continuous enrollment fee (per student) is collected at the completion of the admission procedure or at the point of enrollment.
Payment Plans
To accommodate the FRCS family, we offer the following payment options:
- 10-month Equal Payments Plan: First payment is due in August, last payment in May.
- 12-month Equal Payments Plan: First payment is due in July, last payment in June.
- 2 Semester Payments: Equal payments due in July and December.
- Full Pay 3% Rebate Payment Plan: Families who prefer to pay in full will have the option to receive a 3% rebate of their total tuition payment or make a tax-deductible donation of that refunded amount to the Timothy Fund. To be eligible, the full tuition payment must be submitted by May 31 for the coming fall for existing families or immediately upon enrollment for new families. Full payments are made directly to FRCS via FACTS, check or cash. The 3% rebate or donation does not apply to continuous enrollment fees.
All tuition payments are collected by FACTS Tuition Management and not at FRCS. You will receive information on this program when you register your child. Late fees are assessed when payments are delinquent and are subject to change. When an account is one month delinquent, the student will not be allowed to continue to attend school until arrangements have been made to bring the account to current status. Please notify us immediately if any difficulty should arise so we may partner with you to create an appropriate arrangement that will allow your child to remain in school. Students with delinquent accounts at the end of the year will not be allowed to re-enroll for the following year, nor will grades/transcripts be forwarded to another school until the balance is paid in full. Graduating seniors will only receive a diploma and final transcript if all fees and tuition are current.
Withdrawal Policy
Withdrawal of a student during the school year should be given careful consideration. Because the school has ordered textbooks, planned schedules, and hired teachers based on the number of students enrolled, the following policy will be enforced:
- Each family is responsible for tuition and fees for the entire semester should they choose to withdraw (after the first day of the semester), or if expulsion occurs before the conclusion of that semester.
- Grades/transcripts will not be released until full payment and other obligations have been met including all tuition, fees and fines; sports uniforms and all textbooks must also be returned.
Contributions
For those interested in making cash contributions to the school to help supplement the various costs, a tax-deductible receipt will be issued in the name of the donor. FRCS is officially recognized as a 501(c)(3), non-profit, tax-exempt organization. For non-cash gifts an official letter from FRCS will be provided to the donor stating the item(s) received. The donor will be responsible to assess the fair market value of the donated item(s) when filing their tax return.
FRCS is a member in good standing of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA) and adheres to the ECFA’s seven standards of responsible stewardship.
Campus Fees
Additional fees will be due at each campus for sports, course electives, spiritual life activities, yearbooks, field trips and miscellaneous events. The campus office will provide detailed instructions regarding payment due dates and procedures.
