[quote=Anonymous]My DS was enrolled at a preschool part-time and I decided to withdraw him after having a heated conversation with the director.  I sent the director an email withdrawing DS and she responded yes, that's fine, and specified that she would take only cash, MO or a cashier's check as final payment even though she has always accepted a personal check in the past.

Given their standard practice of accepting a personal check, and that nowhere in their school handbook or anywhere else does it specify the accepted forms of payment, can she now dictate the forms of payment they will accept?  I missed what she said about forms of payment in her last email and showed up with a personal check, and the teacher refused my check.

I feel like I've done what I'm supposed to by offering them the personal check and if they refuse it, I am no longer on the hook for tuition...?  I don't like having this hanging over my head so will get them a cashier's check once I've gotten around to the bank, but I'm wondering what my obligations are at this point.

Also, this director has been very petty and I'm wondering if I do give her a cashier's check, if there's any way she can screw me over.  For instance, if she doesn't deposit the check right away, could she claim that I never paid her?  Should I get a receipt from her when I give her the check?[/quote]
