Book Fee

The book fee covers the cost of all textbooks and workbooks for your child. This fee is non-refundable, and allows you to keep your textbooks and any unused workbook pages. The school reserves the right to keep any unused tests or quizzes to protect the confidentiality of these materials.

The fees are as follows:
Kindergarten: $125; Grades 1-5 $250; Grades 6-8 $275.

Delinquent Tuition Policy

Any default of a scheduled payment through the FACTS program must be paid prior to the next scheduled payment or the student will not be allowed to attend class at Eastside Christian Academy until all fees are current. Any absences accrued as a result of this will be unexcused. If delinquent payments continue, the Eastside Christian Academy Board of Directors reserves the right to dismiss the student permanently.

Additional Fees and Costs

• Special Area Fee:  - There is a $10 fee per student.
• Uniform - Students are expected to adhere to the ECA uniform policy which is explained in the ECA Parent/Student Handbook. Uniforms are the responsibility of the family, and may be purchased at a variety of local clothing stores, including Parker Uniforms and Shaheens.
• Field trips - To enhance learning, each class participates in a variety of field trips. Students are expected to participate on these learning experiences. Parents are expected to incur the cost of the trip, which vary depending on the destination.
• Miscellaneous Expenses - During the course of the year, there may be other expenses that are involved if students participate in other activities, such as sports fees, extracurricular activities, or contests. Most of these expenses are optional (only for those participating), and we try to keep these to a minimum.
