Payments are due by the 1st day of each month; accounts not paid in full by the 5th day of the month will be dropped for non‑payment and a student may not return until the account is paid in full. Tuition must be paid in full before a child may attend After‑School Care. Late pick‑up fees and returned‑payment fees apply.

Boarding / residential provision

Other costs and fees
- Uniforms: students are required to wear school uniforms. Uniform items (other than socks/tights, shoes, modesty shorts) are to be purchased through the school's official vendor, Risse Brothers School Uniforms; families are responsible for purchasing required uniform items. Financial assistance for uniform purchase is available through the school registrar for qualifying families.
- School lunches: pupils must have an individual lunch account with the school's lunch vendor; meal pricing and monthly menus are managed and billed by the lunch vendor's lunch portal. Lunch payments and account setup are handled through the vendor.
- Athletics and extracurriculars: many athletic teams and some after‑school activities operate on a fee basis. Try‑outs and team registration require a non‑refundable registration/try‑out fee to hold a try‑out spot; refunds for athletics are limited and are only issued in the event of an athlete sustaining an injury within the first half of the season (athletes who quit or leave the school are not eligible for a refund). Specific sport or activity fees are set by the athletics or activity program and are billed through the school's payment system when applicable.
- Enrichment / clubs / after‑school classes: some enrichment classes and clubs may carry separate fees; these are billed through the school payment system as applicable.
- Student parking permit (upper school): $65.00 per year (prorated: $35.00 if enrolling at the start of second semester; $25.00 if enrolling after April 1); replacement parking tag: $5.00. Payment is submitted with the student parking permit form.
- Volunteer processing / background checks: volunteers completing the school's volunteer/background check application are asked to submit a $4.00 application processing fee (cash/check/MySchoolBucks or proof of PIP). This fee applies to parent/volunteer background processing, not to student admission.
- Returned payment / NSF fees and penalties: returned payments for After‑School Care and similar programs incur returned‑payment fees (example: $25.00 for returned payments as noted in the After‑Care materials) and accounts with returned or unpaid amounts may be subject to collection or suspension of services. Late pick‑up fees for After‑School Care are applied ($10.00 after the first 5 minutes plus $1.00 per minute thereafter).
Refund information (where published)
- After‑School Care: no credits or refunds are provided for days closed due to inclement weather, student illness, or student absences; withdrawn families must follow the program's withdrawal procedure, and returned payments are subject to fees.
- Athletics: refunds for athletic registration/fees are limited. Refunds are only issued if an athlete sustains a qualifying injury within the first half of the season; changing one's mind, quitting mid‑season, or leaving the school does not typically qualify for a refund. Try‑out registration fees are non‑refundable.
- Field trips and external vendor events: refunds for field trips are governed by the trip operator's cancellation policy; the school's field‑trip forms state that trip operator/hotel/bus/ticket vendor cancellation policies determine any refund and that the school will not provide refunds if the trip is cancelled or delayed.
Fee payment options
- The school accepts online payments through MySchoolBucks for items such as After‑Care, enrichment classes, athletics/club fees, transcripts, and other school fees; MySchoolBucks accepts credit/debit cards and electronic checks.
- Lunch program payments are managed directly through the lunch vendor's portal and follow the vendor's accepted payment methods.
- Certain forms/fees (for example, parking permit fees, volunteer application processing fee, or other office‑collected payments) may be payable in person to the school (cash or check) as noted on the applicable form. Payment instructions on specific forms indicate acceptable payment methods (for example, the parking permit form requests payment payable to “IIA‑NT”).
