***We do not charge additional fees for the full days when a school is out during the school year (i.e.: spring break, Christmas break, teacher
workdays, UEA days, etc.). The maximum hours pertain to days that school is in session and overtime fees will still apply on those days (but
maximum is extended to 10 hrs on days that school is out). The exception is for year around students. They will be assessed an additional charge
of $30 per week that the student is off track or $8.00 per day (whichever is less). Any younger students who are transported to a school district run
pre-school program (or other transportation needs) by Lit’l Scholars will be assessed a $40 per month transportation fee if we accept the duty. Any
state payments received on or before the fifth of the month will receive the discount, but only up to the client’s co-pay. In order for the discount to
apply, the client must pay their co-pay and be current on their account on or before the fifth of the month. Private pay clients must be current for
discounted rate to apply.

I understand my rate (Parent/guardian signature):_______________________________________________________
All monthly payments are due on or before the fifth of each month to receive the discounted rate (If the 5th is on a
weekend, the discount will be extended to the next business day). You can pay the non-discounted rate over the entire
month if you choose. However, at least one fourth of the amount MUST be paid on or before the 6th of the month, if this
amount is not paid a $15.00 billing fee will be charged to your account on the 7th of the month. You will have two
business days to pay the amount due including the billing fee or your services will be suspended. If balance is not
paid within 3 business days following suspension, your services will be terminated and your child’s spot will be
given away. At least one half of the amount MUST be paid on or before the 15th of the month, , if that amount is not
paid a $15.00 billing fee will be charged to your account on the 16th of the month. You will have two business days
to pay the amount due including the billing fee or your services will be suspended. If balance is not paid within 3
business days following suspension, your services will be terminated and your child’s spot will be given away. At
least three-quarters MUST be paid on or before the 22nd of the month, if that amount is not paid a $15.00 billing fee will
be charged to your account on the 23rd of the month. You will have two business days to pay the amount due
including the billing fee or your services will be suspended. If balance is not paid within 3 business days following
suspension, your services will be terminated and your child’s spot will be given away. All of it MUST be paid on or
before the end of the month or services will be stopped. Any payments not paid in full by the end of the month will be
considered delinquent and your children will not be allowed to attend until paid in full including late fees ($100.00 per child
assessed after the end of the month). Please be aware the entire month’s tuition will remain due regardless of the
day services were terminated for nonpayment. The above payment schedule includes clients that receive state
assistants and have co-pays, excluding clients in review.
Daily payments are due prior to the time of the service. We will determine on a daily basis if we can accept a daily
client based upon our present staffing.
Students who are on site exceeding the 10 hours per day or five hours for half days (exception for school age students who
are out for the day) will be charged overtime fees of $4.00 per hour (or part of a full hour) per student. Those parents’ who
are on a four day, ten hour per day work week, may go over their ten hours a day time if they 1) give prior written
notice to the director, 2) do not exceed 50 hours during that week and 3) only attend a maximum of four days per
week. At each of our locations, any students not clocked out prior to 7:00 pm will be charged $1.00 per minute after 7:05
pm. If your child is unable to attend school for any reason, they are not allowed to attend Lit’l Scholars learning
center for any reason until their school has let out for the day.
Two weeks’ notice MUST be given by the client to terminate services. Fees will apply during that time and be
assessed to the account. If client terminates services without a two-week notice, fees will continue until the two weeks are
up. Students with discipline problems that endanger other children and or staff can be suspended or terminated
immediately.
Payments can be made by check, money order, credit card or SNAP card. No cash payments please. Any
returned checks will be charged a $35.00 return check fee. Any billings left unpaid (fifteen days past the end of the month
of service) will be sent to collections and additional charges added to cover the costs (up to 50% of unpaid balance).
We have attached a schedule of all our payment structures. Each client will need to choose a regular payment from one of
those listed in this schedule of payments. Please note that if you choose a part-week, half-day or daily rate, your spot
could be surrendered to a full time paid client (you will be given the opportunity to move your children to full time
prior to surrendering your spot). This is necessary to fulfill our labor requirements as we grow. As long as we
have openings, though, we will continue to fill them with these part time rates as well.
We will strictly follow the guidelines in the schedule of payments. Clients who have balances will also need to make
additional payments during each month to work on bringing balances current.
Thanks for your continued patronage,
Patrick (Mr. Patrick) Marino; Owner/President

Transportation Policies
The Lit’l Scholars buses must follow a very tight schedule. Please note all information to ensure the
safety and punctuality of all the children we transport.
When children are being taken to school; the buses will load and leave at 7:30 am. If your child needs
to eat breakfast they must be here by 7:00am.
When picking children up from school; the driver will wait for 7 minutes at your child’s school. If
your child does not show up to the bus, the driver will call Lit’l Scholars, who will call the school, the
parents and all contacts on your list. If no one can be reaches, we will call the police and file a
missing child report. Please inform your child’s elementary teacher of this policy to prevent the
teacher from holding your children after class, therefore causing your child to miss the bus.
Children who are late to the bus more than three times will lose transportation privileges for one
month.
If your child is absent or leaves school early please notify us by 12:00pm. Failure to notify us will
result in a $25.00 fee to your account. If this occurs more than three times, bus privileges will be
suspended for one month.
Due to the number of schools we transport to and form, we are no longer able to make any special
trips for schedule changes in your child’s class may make. (i.e. Field trips, class or school programs
or assembles) Please make note of these changes and make other arrangements for transportation.
If your child’s school sends home a note regarding schedule changes, half days and/or days the
school will be closed please notify us ASAP. We do not always receive amended changes to the
school schedule. Failure to notify us may result in a $25.00 fee to your account.
All children are expected to have appropriate behavior while riding the bus. Verbal warning will be
given to the children and parents. But if behavior continues transportation privileges will be
suspended if children fail to follow all transportation rules. (i.e. Keep seatbelt on, using soft voices,
arrive to the bus on time, be respectful to all other passengers, bus driver and the bus)
Thank you for all you do and for assisting us with transportation for our most precious cargo, your
children. It is a team effort.
By signing this, I agree to the above stated terms and give my permission for Lit’l Scholars to
transport my child(ren) to and from school.

10:00 am Child Call-in Policy
Lit’l Scholars strives to provide the most consistent and professional care for you and your family. In
order to do this more efficiently, we will be enacting the following policy:
If your child will be arriving at our center after 10:00 am we require you to call the center before then
to let us know.
If your child will be absent, there is no need to call.
If your child is school age and we transport them to and from school, please inform us by 12:00pm if
they will NOT need to be picked up from school. Failure to do so will result in a 25.00 No call charge
to your account.
If you do not inform us prior to 10:00 am and arrive after that time, we may not be staffed to receive
your child, there for you may have to wait with your child until we are able to receive them (this may
take anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour). This policy will better enable us to staff, prepare meals
and plan activities more effectively.
