Withdrawal Policy
PREAMBLE
JumpStart Junior Kindergarten is a 10-month program from September-June. We take your kids on an educational journey building blocks each month. We request a commitment from parents for the entire 10-month term as our program works just like school and not like a daycare or playschool where kids are just cycled in and out year round. However, we do understand that some circumstances may require you to withdraw early.
Every family’s circumstances are different, and we understand that a withdrawal may be prompted by something difficult, unexpected, or beyond your control. Our withdrawal policy was created with these situations in mind.
The policy gives families a clear way to withdraw without a full-year tuition commitment, while helping Jumpstart meet its ongoing staffing and operating costs. We apply the notice and refund terms consistently to all families, including when circumstances are unexpected or urgent. The flexibility is built into the policy so that every family has access to it.
POLICY
If you wish to withdraw from the program, at least one calendar month’s notice prior to the 1st of the month is required to be eligible for an Enrollment Deposit refund minus a 5% processing fee with exceptions as per below:
Deposit refund deadlines
To receive a deposit refund when withdrawing early, you must submit a withdrawal request using the withdrawal form on the parent portal and provide at least one month’s notice by the applicable deadline:
| Your child’s program start date | Deadline to request a withdrawal and qualify for a deposit refund |
|---|---|
| On or before January 15 | Submit your withdrawal request on or before January 15. |
| January 16 through the last day of February | Submit your withdrawal request by the last day of February. |
| March 1 or later | Deposits are not refundable for early withdrawals. |
These deadlines apply to when your withdrawal request is submitted. The normal year-end deposit refund still applies to families who complete the school year.
If your early withdrawal does not meet the deposit refund requirements, your deposit will be forfeited. Losing your deposit is the only withdrawal penalty; you are not required to pay tuition for the remainder of the school year.
