What is an incidental account? Is my child required to have one?
Most of the cost of the summer experience is included in the tuition. The Academy strongly recommends that parents/guardians place money in an incidental account prior to the beginning of the session. This account covers expenses such as weekly allowance, course books (for academic students only), laundry, personal needs in the camp and school store such as phone cards, weekend excursion spending money, and includes a damage deposit. **This is not a pool of money whereby students and campers can draw from whenever they want funds. Our incidental account is setup like an allowance. Students and campers are allotted a certain amount of money per account. You will receive a billing statement at the end of the summer detailing where or how the money was spent. Your son or daughter’s remaining balance will be mailed to you after the summer session. We recommmend that students/campers do not have cash in their rooms or on them. We are not responsible for lost or stolen money or valuables.
