Per week for additional children registered in the program from the same family.

$ 25.00

Non-refundable registration fee (per family) collected at the time of registration if not enrolled during regular school year.
 

Activity Fees

If a parent elects to enroll a child in an extra enrichment activity (field trip, on-site activity, etc. ), the parent will be responsible for any cost incurred by the After School Program for the extra activity. Advance notice of the date and cost of the activity will be given. All activity fees are non-refundable.

 

Workday Fees

An additional fee of $20.00 per child is charged for a teacher workday. The fee is non-refundable. No refunds, credits or account adjustments will be given if your child does not attend a teacher workday once you have registered your child to attend. 

 

Late Payment of Tuition Fee

A fee of $10.00 per family will be added automatically when tuition payments are made after Friday (or the last day of the week that the child regularly attends) for the upcoming week unless the child is absent due to illness on that day. A parent who arranges for alternate pickup on a Friday is still responsible for ensuring that payment is made according to ASP payment policy to avoid being charged this fee.

 

Late Pickup Fee

A late pickup fee of five dollars per child, per every five minutes ($1.00 per minute) will be charged to parents picking up children after 6:00 p.m. We reserve the right to dismiss a child after the third instance of late pickup. In the event a parent experiences a true emergency, the program coordinator should be notified by 6:00 p.m.  If no contact has been received, attempts will be made to contact persons on the child’s emergency list. If child is not picked up by 6:45 p.m. local authorities may be called.

 

Late Registration Fee (TWD and Breaks)

Failure to enroll by the posted deadline for teacher workdays, intersession, or winter and spring breaks (or any time a child is required to attend a site other than the home site) will result in a $10.00 per child late registration fee. Late enrollment will be permitted based on available space and number of staff scheduled to work.

 

Payment Procedures

The program is financially self-supporting through fees collected from parents of each child enrolled. The After School Program receives no Federal or State money, therefore:

  1. Weekly tuition from all parents, including those receiving tuition assistance, is due in advance on Friday (or the last day of the week that the child regularly attends) for the next week.

  2. Weekly tuition payments are considered late and an account will be assessed a Late Payment of Tuition Fee of $10.00 if payment is made after Friday. In the event of a school closing or child’s absence due to illness on Friday (or the last day of the week that the child regularly attends), tuition is due the first business day of the next week.

  3. An account is considered past due if not paid on Friday if there is a balance due. The total balance due must be paid by Monday by 6:00 p.m. or the child may not return to the program Tuesday afternoon.  

  4. Payments should not be sent with the child or left in the school office. Payment should be made to the program coordinator or the coordinator’s designated charge person. A parent who arranges for alternate pickup on a Friday is still responsible for ensuring that payment is made according to these policies.

  5. If paying in cash, parents are requested to have correct change—cash is not kept on site.

  6. Credit will be given for inclement weather when the program is closed.

  7. The After School Program is unable to accept postdated checks for payment on account. If special circumstances or situations occur, consideration for approval of payment arrangements must be made through the After School Program’s Central Services (704) 290-1516.

  8. The full weekly fee is due regardless of a child’s attendance, holidays during the week, workdays, remote learning days in a week or child’s start date.

Options for a child after 11 grades

Maria Guryeva

tutor and education consultant in the USA

The main mistake that a future graduate can make is not to do anything for admission to a Higher Educational Institution, believing that “it will work out somehow”. The approach is also wrong when a student chooses subjects that he can pass, hoping to understand where he can go by passing scores. nine0012

Options for where to enter after graduation

  1. University . Entering a higher educational institution, a suggested list of specialties unfolds before a future graduate. On the one hand, this is good, on the other hand, there is a chance to get even more confused about the preferences of the future profession. Admission to a university directly depends on the results of the Unified State Examination and the higher the overall score, the more likely it is to enter a prestigious university.
  2. College. You can go to college after the 9th grade. The results of the exam are not required, enrollment is based on the total score of the certificate. The advantage of a college relative to a university is that secondary specialized educational institutions have a lower workload and a three-year study period. You can quickly get a diploma and start earning.
  3. Courses . The courses do not require either passing the exam or a certificate. The courses do not last long, so soon enough after them you can start earning and applying knowledge in practice. But! The list of professions that can be mastered in this way is very limited. nine0022
  4. Apply to a US university. Let’s consider this option in more detail. The specialties of American universities are no different. The only thing is that they are held in another language. A diploma from an American university is a guarantee of a successful career in the future in the chosen specialty.

Of course, admission to a US university has its own difficulties. But is it as difficult as it might seem at first glance? Let’s see.

Methods of admission to the American University for students from Russia

  1. Finish high school in America. For this, it is not necessary to study at an American school from the first grade. It is enough that, for example, in your teens, as part of an exchange student program, you are sent to an American family, and their child is sent to yours. You can send a teenager to study if he successfully passes the entrance exams and all that remains for the parents is to pay for the living of their child.

    Graduation from an American school guarantees admission to a US university. American schoolchildren talk with consultants, and they help determine what is needed for a particular specialty. nine0005

    But! Not all parents will want to let their child go to an unfamiliar country. Also, if you are already finishing the eleventh grade, this option will not work.

  1. International Year One. A special university program that helps international students prepare for study at a US university. Upon completion of this program, you will be able to immediately enter the second year of undergraduate studies. Students practice the language and program they have chosen with greater intensity. Thanks to this, further training passes without difficulties. One year is enough to fully adapt. nine0002 The only thing if you are interested in entering a certain university is not the fact that this program will be attached to it. And the passage of International Year One in one university, in order to enter another later, is out of the question.

  1. Community college . If you dream of entering a prestigious American university, then this option may not be considered. It completely excludes the possibility of entering top universities. Otherwise, even the Americans themselves use this method. nine0002 This method is much cheaper and it is possible to understand whether you want to study in the US, while gaining a profession. After studying for two years at an American college, you can easily move on to the third year of the university.

  1. Apply directly . That is, as in a Russian university. Pass the exam, apply and that’s it. TOEFL is added to the Unified State Exam (the result is not lower than 79 points) and SAT / ACT.

Algorithm for admission after grade 11 in the USA

Where to enter after 11th grade

Choosing a university, taking Toefl and SAT exams

Let’s look at the world soberly. If the school did not have in-depth lessons in the subjects that are needed for your specialty; you spent little time on extracurricular activities; your TOEFL and SAT/ACT scores leave a lot to be desired – you won’t get into Ivy League universities.

However, this does not mean that all other educational institutions in America are bad. Against. Each educational institution has professors who are experts in their field. nine0005

When choosing a university, you should focus on finances and exam results. A little lower we will talk in more detail about scholarships (yes, they are also there, even for foreigners).

Submission of documents

First you need to make sure at what time the chosen university accepts applications. Usually there are two streams: early and late. In the first one, you can apply from November 15th to January 1st inclusive. The second – until May 1st. nine0005

It is worth applying to the second stream. In the first – only to priority universities. Since if you receive an application for enrollment, if you refuse, there will be no second chance. It is worth applying to the first stream if you are applying for a place in a prestigious university. In this case, the chances of enrollment are higher.

What are the admission requirements for a child after grade 11 in the US

1. TOEFL exam
TOEFL is an English language exam that all foreigners are required to take. The only exception may arise if your training was conducted in English. Minimum threshold – 79points.

2. SAT/ACT
SAT/ACT is also an English proficiency test. Only this exam is passed not only by foreigners, but also by Americans. The minimum threshold is 1200-1300. Some universities can accept from 1060 points. But if you apply for a scholarship, you need to try to get to 1400.

3. Outside academic achievements
In Russia, it is customary to be skeptical about diplomas and diplomas, but in America the policy is different.

How to enter the USA after 11th grade if there is no money for education

Education in America is paid, no one will deny it, so now we will talk about ways to cover the cost of studying in America with a scholarship.

There are universities that offer full cost coverage. Upon admission, it is necessary to carefully monitor the grant programs offered by the university. But! Initially, you will still have to pay the full cost. After all, the university first accepts, and then issues a scholarship. nine0005

You can apply for free with the help of a sponsor. There are enough employers on the labor market who are willing to pay full training for a potential employee in the name of company growth. Every manager needs a qualified specialist. Information about such material support can be found on the websites of the company and universities.

I would like to note that the procedure for entering the US does not differ much from the Russian system. Everything is the same, only with the help of exams you need to confirm your knowledge of English. An American diploma will help build a successful career in the future and will be in demand in any country. nine0012

whether it is necessary to continue your studies, who you can work with

High school students think about what to do after school long before graduation. And this is the right way to do it. At the age of 14-17, the guys still have little life experience – they need to analyze and weigh a lot in order to make the right decision.

Briefly about admission after school

Some graduates have to go to work right after school to help their families. Unfortunately, such cases are not uncommon in our country. But mostly schoolchildren of the 9th and 11th grades are faced with the task of continuing their education and getting a diploma.

To do this, a 9th grader has two options:

  1. Continue studying at school, in grades 10 and 11.
  2. To enroll in a secondary specialized educational institution (colleges).

More about where you can go to study after 9th class, we have already told in this article. Today we will analyze what opportunities the guys who have received a complete secondary education have, i.e. 11th grade graduates.

Post-secondary entry options

Eleventh graders also have two standard career options:

  1. Enrolling in a higher education institution (university) with the aim of obtaining a diploma of higher education.
  2. Entering a college or technical school and obtaining a diploma of secondary vocational education. nine0022

Higher education

Source: iprofiles.ru

Most of the children who continue their education at school in the 10th and 11th grades are going to enter the university. Getting a higher professional education has pluses :

  1. Weight in the eyes of employers. With a higher education, it is easier to get a job in a large company with career prospects.
  2. The university education system teaches students analytical thinking.

    3. nine0019 The educational program is designed in such a way that students spend a lot of time on independent work. Young people learn responsibility and independence.

  3. Studying at a university broadens one’s horizons, teaches one to learn, seek and assimilate knowledge.

But oddly enough, there are minuses :

  1. At the university, students receive mainly theoretical knowledge, divorced from practical activities. Young people learn to apply them in the professional sphere already at work. nine0022
  2. Training takes more time than mastering a profession in a college. Financial independence from parents is achieved later than for those children who have chosen secondary specialized education.
  3. Far from all graduates manage to enter a state-funded place, and not everyone can afford to study on a paid basis.

Secondary vocational education

Source: nash-surgut.ru

Secondary vocational education is suitable for those who:

  1. Seeks early financial independence from parents. The term of study in the secondary school after the 11th grade is only 2-3 years (depending on the specialty), while at the university it reaches 4-6 years.
  2. Is going to get an applied profession, for which studying at a college is more valuable than at a university, as it involves a large number of practical exercises.
  3. Wants to enroll in a higher education institution after secondary school on an abbreviated program of study. There are a large number of colleges at universities where graduates of colleges receive a diploma of secondary specialized education and can enter the 2nd or 3rd year of the university through internal exams (not the USE). nine0022

The disadvantage of secondary vocational education is its traditionally low importance in comparison with higher education. Many large companies, when choosing candidates, even for ordinary positions, consider only those who have a diploma of higher education.

Specialized courses

An alternative to the standard ways of getting an education are courses that have been especially popular in recent years.

Online schools offer programs for 3 months, half a year, a year and 2 years. Upon completion of such training, graduates receive a certificate of completion of the course, real practical knowledge and personal cases on which this knowledge has been successfully applied. nine0005

The advantages of courses are obvious:

  1. As a rule, they teach the most popular and relevant professions.
  2. A short period of study compared to the university and college.
  3. The applied nature of training, which allows you to immediately apply the acquired knowledge in practice and consolidate them.

also has disadvantages:

  1. All courses are paid, the cost of well-known online schools for the year can be equal to the annual course at the university. nine0022
  2. At the end of the course, graduates will have a certificate of completion, but in the eyes of most employers, it will not matter without a vocational diploma.

Such courses are recommended for those who already have a professional education from a university or college, but who would like to master a modern profession and be a specialist in demand in the market. In this case, the assessment of the employer will be completely different. You will be looked at as a person who is not afraid of new information and strives to develop in an interesting area. nine0005
