My families have a flat tuition rate that they pay per week. If I am open, they pay whether they come or not.

That does mean that I sometimes get kids when they could be home with their parents. But, this is my business and need to know how much $ is coming in so that I can pay my bills.

(I do give my teachers the choice of paying a smaller holding fee in the summer. But, I can only do that because I am able to fill their sopts with SA kiddos. Mainly DC graduates.)
