LC SUBSIDIZED CHILD CARE TO OFF-SET PROGRAM FEES

Parents or guardians approved to receive subsidized child care through The Early Coalition of Miami-Dade/Monroe County (ELC) must adhere to the guidelines stipulated by this agency.  Students approved to receive ELC funds may be eligible for a subsidized allotment that will off-set the cost for the 2017-2018 after school care program by up to $8.00 per day (part-time rate) and for the 2017-2018 all day school care program, up to $16.60 per day (full-time rate).  Parents or guardians are responsible for program fees that are in excess of the subsidized voucher amount.  If you are interested, the ELC can be reached at 305-373-3521 from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm.  ELC does NOT pay for insurance or late fees.

​

ALL Fees must be paid in advance based on the enclosed payment schedules.  Fees may be paid by check, cash or money order.  There is no partial payment for partial use of services.  NO CHILD WILL BE ALLOWED TO BEGIN A SERVICE PERIOD FOR WHICH PAYMENT HAS NOT BEEN MADE.

​

Certain program costs may be deducted from your federal income taxes and you should save your cancelled checks and/or receipts from the program.  Ask your Program Manager for the needed IRS W-10 form (Provider Identification and Certification.)

 

LATE CHILD PICK-UP FEE

A late fee of $10 per 15 minutes per family will be charged for children not picked up on time.  Consistent late pick up may result in the child being withdrawn from the program.

​

LATE PAYMENT FEE

A late payment fee of $10 will be charged for payments not received by the due date listed on the payment schedule.

​

REFUND/CREDIT POLICY

A student absent for 5 OR MORE CONSECUTIVE DAYS from the after school program, may receive credit for the amount of paid days absent.  At the request of the parent, this amount may be deducted from the amount of the payment due for the following service period.  Parents must notify the after school care office if you child will be absent on any given day.

 

Below are the fees for our different After School Care Programs.  Students who qualify and are verified as having free and reduced lunch status will be eligible for a reduced daily rate.  Proof of free and reduced lunch status for each individual student must be retained in program files for future audit.
