If you do a short/simple contract and then more detailed handbook I would really like to see/hear what info is on that contract page.
I am thinking of going this route. I've always had a 5-6 page contract/handbook in one. I'm not one to spell out every little detail and rule - all the basics are covered (late fees, sick policy, holidays, etc.) but every now and then things come up that I end up expanding my contract and now I'm wondering if I wouldn't be better off with a more detailed separate handbook. Mine has worked for me for years, I really never used to have issues but I swear parents do stupid things sometimes and I really am thinking maybe I should spell it out a little more.

Thanks Blackcat!!
That is similar to what I'm looking for but I don't give the rates out like that - so need something a bit different.
