Constituent Credit

$450 yearly
Granted to each student whose parent, legal guardian, or grandparent is a current member of one of RJA’s two constituent churches: Hampden Heights or Kenhorst Boulevard.
Sibling Credit
$50 monthly
$450 yearly
Granted to families with more than one child enrolled at RJA. The credit applies to each additional child, but not to the first child.
Tuition Payment Discount
A 3% discount is applied when the complete semester or yearly tuition is paid by the applicable deadline.
First-semester or yearly payment must be received by the end of September. Second-semester payment must be received by the end of January.
Payment and Account Policies
Payment Options
Accepted methods include cash, money orders, checks, and credit cards. Debit cards are processed as credit cards. Additional fees may apply to credit-card payments. If a check is returned by the bank, RJA may decline future check payments from that family.
Refunds
If a student withdraws on or before the 15th of the month, 50% of that month’s tuition will be refunded. After the 15th of the month, no refund will be made. Any remaining account credit will be refunded after all other expenses are accounted for.
Account Questions
If you believe an account error occurred, provide a receipt, processed-check copy, or credit-card statement so the school can review it. Do not leave cash unattended at the secretary’s desk or send money with students. Contact the secretary the same day to verify receipt of any payment intended for the school.
