State Child Care Assistance Vouchers
Families who have been approved for Arkansas State Child Care Assistance Vouchers will have all school-related fees waived, in accordance with state regulations. This includes, but is not limited to, the registration fee, supply fee, building fee, PTO fee, and/or summer registration fee. Monthly tuition will be billed directly to the state. Families are still responsible for lunch and milk fees, as these cannot be billed to the state and are not subject to waiver. These charges must be paid monthly in accordance with the payment policies outlined in this contract. In the event that a child's voucher expires or becomes inactive prior to the end of the school year or summer term, the parent or guardian will be responsible for: Prorated school fees (based on the remaining term after voucher expiration), and Monthly tuition, beginning the first day after voucher expiration and continuing through the end of the current term, or until voucher coverage resumes. If the voucher is expected to renew within three (3) weeks of its expiration, families will be billed at a per diem rate for tuition. If renewal will take longer or is not anticipated, tuition will be billed monthly, with payment due on the day coverage lapses and again on the 1st of each subsequent month. It is the parent/guardian's responsibility to monitor the status of their voucher and to notify the school immediately of any changes to eligibility or coverage dates.

I have applied for or been approved to receive funds through the Arkansas Education Freedom Account (EFA) program. I understand that I am responsible for ensuring my EFA account is active and that funds are allocated in a timely manner to cover my child’s tuition. I understand that Lunches, Milk, and Before/After School Care are not elligible EFA expenses and must be paid out of pocket.
