We appreciate your interest in Bensalem Christian Day School and hope that you will be pleased with the developmentally appropriate Christian program we have created to meet the needs of the community and your child.

Special programs such as music, visits from firemen, and a librarian to name a few provide enrichment activities for the school. All classes go on field trips to local points of interest to broaden their experiences. Parents provide transportation for our trips. The cost of trips and special programs for your child is included in your activity fee.

Bensalem Christian Day School values the communication between parent and staff. Our shared goal is to provide the best possible experience for your child and to help foster good self-esteem, self-confidence and individuality. Our aim for your child is to feel good about school through play and a variety of learning experiences. We encourage you to share your comments and questions because communication and exchange of ideas is very important to our program.

Please keep in mind that all of our staff are both qualified and caring individuals. We will not be taking any special request for a particular teacher. Thank you in advance for your understanding.

Please feel free to stop in the office if you need additional registration forms for your family or friends. When giving forms to others, you may wish to remind them that their forms will not be processed before February 14^th.

We appreciate your support of our school this year and look forward to serving you and caring for your precious children again next year.

Sincerely,

Lisa A. Woods

Day School Director

Registration begins the beginning of February for current Preschool families. I would encourage you to return your registration form as soon as possible in order to obtain the program you want.

Tuition Agreement for Applications: There are nine (9) equal payments due September – May.

However, we are considering extending the year through the second week of June. Preschool students must be paid in full for the 2010-2011 school year and pay one month of tuition by September 1^st to secure their class placement. This payment will be considered to be your payment for the month of September. The remaining eight payments are due on the first of each month. If you have any questions concerning your account, please see Lisa Woods.

A $15.00 late fee will be charged if the payment is not received by the 10^th of the month. The Director, Lisa Woods, may be contacted to discuss special extenuating circumstances you may have.

Enrollment is for the entire school year, September through May. If you are moving, or make voluntary withdrawal for any reason, parents are required to notify the director in writing two weeks prior to leaving, or earlier, if possible.

School Policies

When two (2) or more children in the family are enrolled in the school in the same year, there will be a 10% discount for the second child, and a 5% discount for any other children.
Because it is necessary to make staff commitments in advance, no reduction or rebate of tuition can be made in case of absences, illness or voluntary withdrawal from school.
