Options for Payment:

Choose a Payment Method:
Today, you will be charged only $100.

1. Credit Card: If you opt to pay by credit card, there will be a 4% convenience charge. This will be charged by the bookkeeper after your initial payment of $100.
2. ACH (Electronic Funds Transfer from Checking or Savings): To bypass the 4% credit card fee, you can use ACH for your payments. With this option, once you submit this registration form, your credit card will be charged only $100. (We take this information as a security measure, in case the ACH forms are not returned to our office.)  Upon receiving your registration, our office will email you the ACH form and an invoice.

The ACH form must be completed, signed, scanned, and emailed back to our bookkeeper within 5 business days of submitting the form below. If we do not receive it, one of two things will happen:

-If you opted to pay in full, the remainder of your balance will be charged on the credit card plus the 4% convenience fee.
-If you opted for the monthly plan, and we don’t have the ACH form by the time your payment is due, all subsequent monthly payments will go on the credit card plus the 4% fee until the form is received.

Choose to Pay in Full or in Monthly Installments:

1. Pay in full  (You will be charged $100 now and the rest by the bookkeeper) 
2. Monthly Installments:  $100 will be charged today. This is your monthly payment plan fee.  Later, the  bookkkeper will charge your $500 deposit.  
Your remaining balance is broken into ten monthly payments, all due on the 1st of each month. Payments begin the month after you register. If you register before the 20th of any month, payments begin the month after you register. If you register after the 20th of any month, your 1st monthly payment will occur on the 1st after a 30 day billing cycle has passed (e.g. if you register January 21st, your first payment will occur on March 1st).

Discounts:
– Member Discount: If the student and parent are (or will) members of the Adventure Judaism Congregation in 2021, the student’s tuition is $5,000

Extra Fees:
– Fees increase if the ceremony is outside of Boulder Colorado. See below.
– Please be aware that once you confirm your date and time with the Rabbi, there is a $250/fee for changing date or time.

Refunds:
– If you pay in full, 50% is non-refundable. On Jan 1, 2022 the entire amount becomes non-refundable.
– If you use the monthly payment plan, each payment is non-refundable.

Requirements:
This is the Adventure Rabbi Program, not the Slacker Rabbi Program. Bar and Bat Mitzvah students must be in reasonable physical shape to participate in this group. You do not have to be an incredible athlete, but you shouldn’t be a couch potato who hates hiking.

Bar and Bat mitzvah students must be willing to meet 7 requirements to be accepted to this program:

1. Be in excellent physical health and willing to engage in strenuous activities, such as a 6.2-mile hike, 3.1 miles uphill and 3.1 miles downhill.  A good test for yourself is to be sure that you can hike uphill without stopping for 30-minutes and that you can engage in a continuous physical activity for 2-hours. (We will be out much longer than that.) If you struggle with uncontrolled asthma or other breathing challenges, let’s talk before you sign up.

2. Enjoy social situations with peers and be willing and able to work with a group. Be willing to bring in any student who feels left out.

3. Students may make-up two classes by reading assigned chapters of Rabbi Korngold’s books and writing about them. Orientation may only be made up by a private class with Rabbi Korngold for $150. After two missed classes, the third missed class is made up by private study with Rabbi Korngold for $150/hour.

4. Be ready to learn! There are no Hebrew or Religious school prerequisites for this class, but you must be ready to learn. Students are expected to be respectful of the Rabbi, other staff and each other. Although this is a fun program, it is still academically rigorous and school rules apply.

5. Complete all homework (googledoc) assignments and share with the Rabbi.  They generally take 30 minutes to write-up.

6. Parents must be willing to join our class Livingtree group where our we post important information.

7. Students must complete the required Hebrew prayers, 6 Torah verses, and speeches before the ceremony. (Students must learn to read in Hebrew, not transliteration.)
