Hello, What is cost of education cover? I have two children in elementary school. What does it cover lunch, uniforms, school supplies etc

Thank you for your question. The key to your answer depends upon the specific language of the Final Judgment and the relevant statutory and case law. If your then-husband was ordered to pay “all costs of education for [the child]”, then that covers all expenses directly related to the child’s education. That would typically include tuition (if at a private school), transportation (school bus/shuttle expenses), school lunches and related expenses. Extra-curricular school activities (like sports, music, etc.) might be included depending on the breadth of the language in the Final Judgment.  Please have a competent family law attorney - perhaps the lawyer you sued in your divorce case if you had a lawyer - review the Final Judgment and relevant statutory and case law defining “education expenses”. The lawyer should and give you a list of specific items covered under the definition of “education expenses.” If your ex does not favorably respond to a lawyer’s payment demand letter with the details attached, you may file a motion to enforce the Final Judgment. Good luck!
