2024-2025 Registration

Registration can be done at:  https://rps.digitalsignup.com  if space available. A registration fee of $40.00 per student is due at the time of registration. Registration using a computer or tablet is preferred. If full, please join the waitlist ; there is no fee to join the waitlist.   Due to limited staffing, some sites may be on a waitlist very soon after enrollment opens.  Enrollment is first come, first served, based on availability at each BAC location. Once availability is determined, you will be contacted, in the order of which the registration to the waitlist was received, which may be after the start of school. Enrollment/Re-enrollment forms are required to be updated annually per State of Michigan Licensing regulations and will be emailed after confirmation of registration.  Returning students may not enroll if there is a previous or remaining balance on their Family Access account.

After the start of school, if space is confirmed by our office, enrollment in the program will take a minimum of one week to process before your child/children can attend BAC.

Payments – Family Access

The BAC program is tuition based, it is not funded by Rockford Public Schools. Returning students may not
enroll if there is a previous or remaining balance on their Family Access account. We do not offer sibling
discounts. The BAC program is set-up by child, not by family or parent. Each child enrolled will have their own
account. You can locate your child’s account through Family Access. A bill for services scheduled for the next
month is generated in your Family Access account when the schedule is being entered. The bill must be paid in
full by the 25th of the month for those services which are scheduled to occur in the following month. Payments
are made by logging into Family Access using the Fee Management tab and paid via e-Funds. Tuition is
charged on the basis of enrollment, not attendance, i.e., illness, vacation. If BAC is open, you will be charged if your child was scheduled to attend.

Receipts for payments can be found in Family Access.

Income Tax Information is found in Family Access. Additional copies will be available for a $10.00 charge/per request.
