Loganville Christian Academy is introducing the continuous enrollment process to make it easier for parents and students to maintain their registration at LCA year after year until graduation.
WHAT IS CONTINUOUS ENROLLMENT?
At LCA, we recognize the value of a sustained long-term partnership with families in their children’s education. A seamless transition from lower school through upper school provides a consistent, thorough progression through academic coursework. Considering this philosophy, LCA is pleased to offer a concept in enrollment management called continuous enrollment. From the time of initial admission through upper school graduation, your student will be considered enrolled at LCA unless a parent or guardian notifies the school otherwise. This will eliminate the need to complete the re-enrollment packet and pay re-enrollment fees.
THE CONTINUOUS ENROLLMENT AGREEMENT
This contract begins this academic year and will automatically renew each successive academic year until your student has graduated from LCA, you complete the withdrawal procedures outlined below, or the contract is terminated by LCA. As a family maintains their continuous enrollment, each student’s information (i.e. address, phone, email, emergency contacts, and medical information) continues from grade to grade in FACTS and Magnus. LCA will help to maintain the database by reminding parents to update their demographic information regularly.
Current students who meet all the re-enrollment requirements academically, behaviorally, and financially will be guaranteed enrollment for the upcoming school year. There will be no need to fill out the re-enrollment packet or pay the registration or re-enrollment fee. Each January, LCA will release the tuition rates for the upcoming school year. Enrolled families will be given a withdrawal window in which they can withdraw their student without penalty. For the 2024-2025 school year that date will be February 15th. After February 15th, 2024, if a family has not filled out the Intent to Withdraw Form, they will be considered enrolled. Withdrawal after this date up to the start of the school year will be subject to a 2-month tuition penalty. Starting February 16th, all open spots will be released to newly enrolling families. Withdrawals after the start of the school year will be subject to the standard withdrawal penalty. (Tuition for month of withdrawal plus two additional months)
INTENT TO WITHDRAW
LCA understands that circumstances can change from year to year. If you do not plan to return to LCA for the upcoming school year, please notify us by completing the Intent to Withdraw Form by February 15 to avoid being charged the withdrawal fee.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
+Why does LCA use continuous enrollment?
When families partner with LCA, we believe they are committed to continuing their education through high school graduation. Continuous enrollment shifts the annual re-enrollment process so that families are not required to complete time-consuming enrollment packets for each student. Instead, families who wish to continue their education elsewhere, must take action to withdraw.
+How does this benefit my family?
Simplicity and guaranteed placement. As enrollment increases, there are gradel levels at LCA that are nearing capacity or have waiting pools. Continuous enrollment guarantees placement for your child until graduation.
+What if I withdraw my student after the withdrawal window?
LCA's standard withdrawal policy will apply. Faculty and staff hiring, and budgets are set accordingly based upon enrollment numbers. Students who withdraw before fulfilling their financial contract must submit thirty days’ written notice. All paid fees are forfeited, and a withdrawal fee will be assessed.
- Families who withdraw between February 16-August 6 will be required to pay two months of tuition.
- Families withdrawing after the first day of school will be required to pay for the month you withdraw plus two additional months.
Report cards and/or transcripts are released to the parent or other schools only when the student’s account is paid up to date and all school property is returned in good condition.
