FINANCIAL TERMS

The mission or the River Academy is to serve parents by providing a rigorous Christ-centered education, steeped in Western Culture, preparing their children to view every area of life and learning in the light of God's Word, to be fruitful, and ever increasing in the knowledge of God.

In order to accomplish this task, it is important that all financial arrangements are clearly understood and followed. The following sections outline the financial terms and conditions of education at The River Academy.

A book fee of $220.00 per student is due by July 1st. All books and materials purchased remain the property of The River Academy.

Development FEE

$500 per family due in full by December 31, 2013. This amount can be entirely fundraised during the fall fundraising event, but any amount not raised by December 31 will be assessed as a fee.

Any amount that you choose to personally pay toward the fundraiser is tax deductible; however after December 31, 2012 any unpaid amount becomes becomes a fee and is no longer tax deductible.)
