WHEN, WHERE, WHO to pay

Payment Details

Reminder:  We don't use the website system for accounting of classes. Therefore, all of your class totals on the website should be "$0."  This is, of course, incorrect.  Class fees are included in each class description.  The accurate accounting for your classes and payments is found on your emailed invoice.

Wait!  Have you received an emailed invoice?  You will find the information you need on the invoice from [email protected].  If you need an updated invoice, please feel free to email the Treasurer, Rochel Melendez, and she will send you a current invoice.  Information on the website accounting system is incorrect. 

Who (and where) to pay

If paying by check, please make your check out to Tampa Covenant Homeschoolers.  Please mail your check to Tampa Covenant Homeschoolers, 13320 Lake Magdalene Blvd., Tampa, FL  33618.  Make sure to send your check early enough to arrive by the due date.  Please write your child's/children's names in the memo line so that we know what account to credit.  Your payment will be applied according to the deadlines required.  For instance, payments will be applied to dues, materials, and facility fees (when applicable) first, then divided among all classes equally, or according to a Payment Agreement (see below).

If paying by credit card (handling fee applies) please use this link:  www.paypal.me/tchomeschoolers When paying online, please pay the applicable handling fees (listed on your invoice).  Credit card processing fees are not worked in to the cost of your class and must be paid by registered families.

We do not accept cash payments.  

When to pay

Deposits / Materials Fees and Membership Dues are due upon registration.

Membership dues for the 2024-2025 academic year are $50 per family.

New this year:  Late fees.  A late fee of $20 will be charged on all overdue payments, regardless of amount, on the day after the due date and again every seven (7) days thereafter.  To avoid a late fee, please provide a payment plan C (on or before the due date), signed by the parent and teacher, allowing for the late payment.  Payment plan C becomes your new due date.  You can find the payment plan form at THIS LINK.

Class Fees and Facility Fees are due on the first day of class. Understanding that this is not always possible for every family, but respecting our teachers’ financial needs as well, the Board of Tampa Covenant Homeschoolers has provided the following payment plan options for full-year classes’ fees (single-semester-classes require pre-payment). Facility fees and Admin fees are due on the first day of class and are not included in payment plans.

Plan A - 2 payments for class fees.  Materials Fees / Deposits and Membership Dues are due June 1st or upon registration if after June 1st.  Facility Fees and Admin fees are due on the first day of class.  50% of class fees are due on August 22, 2024.  The remaining 50% is due on January 16, 2025.

Plan B - 4 payments for class fees.  Materials Fees / Deposits and Membership Dues are due June 1st or upon registration if after June 1st.  Facility Fees and Admin fees are due on the first day of class. 25% of class fees are due on August 22, 2024.  Another 25% is due on October 10, 2024.  Another 25% is due on January 16, 2025.  The final 25% is due on March 20, 2025.

Plan C - You and your child's instructor may negotiate a payment plan agreeable to both of you.  Regardless, Materials Fees / Deposits and Membership Dues are due June 1st or upon registration if after June 1st.  Facility Fees and Admin fees are due on the first day of class.  Teachers may or may not agree to your suggested plan.  If the instructor does not agree to an alternative payment plan, you may choose Plans A or B, or drop the class.  

For single-semester classes, the deposit (due upon registration) is equal to the class fees, so no payment plan is possible.

In order to choose a payment plan, please complete the required form using THIS LINK.  The required form will download to your computer.

If choosing Payment Plan C, in addition to completing the form linked above, the teacher's signed agreement with the plan must be send via email to Rochel at [email protected] or you may place the signed agreement in the payment drop box.

All questions about accounts should be directed to Rochel Melendez, TCH Treasurer, at [email protected].
