I am not receiving my statement via email.  Why?

• First, make sure that we have your current email address on file.
• Second, some email providers filter attachments for security purposes.  You may need to adjust your email settings to allow for attachments from designated senders such as CircleChristianSchool.org.

I am past due on my account.  What should I do?

• We recognize that some of our families face financial challenges during the year for a variety of reasons. Communication is very important.  Please contact Mike Stroup (Email:MikeS@CircleChristianSchool.org) at the Circle offices to establish a payment plan and to remain in good standing. It is our desire to work with our families during challenging times.

1. Maintain enrollment in classes or programs. ** Students may be denied access to attend. **
2. Receive student testing results
3. Obtain academic records or transcripts
4. Participate in athletic programs

The school year has started and I would like to drop my child from some classes or programs.  Will my bill be reduced accordingly?
