• During the second marking period, they are responsible for tuition through the end of the second marking period plus a 15% penalty.
• During the third marking period, they are responsible for tuition through the end of the third marking period plus a 10% penalty.
• During the fourth marking period, they are responsible for full year tuition with no penalty.

Note:  There is not a penalty for a family who registers for the upcoming school year and then chooses to withdraw prior to June 1. They will not be charged tuition or penalties.

At Shalom Christian Academy we recognize that students have different academic needs and often learn at different speeds. Learning disabilities, attention issues and/or anxiety issues can be discouraging for students. Through our Student Support Services(SSS), Shalom seeks to provide support for students with mild disabilities who are mainstreamed into the rigorous academic curriculum in the general classroom. Shalom offers support services to students in grades PreK - 12. Students in this program function at average to above average levels and are diagnosed with mild disabilities in the areas of:

• Specific Learning Disability (SLD)
• ADHD
• Processing Deficits
• Generalized Anxiety Disorder
• High-functioning Autism
