Legal Question in Education Law in North Carolina

My children are in private school. I paid their tuition in advance for a discount. The school has been purchased by someone else and they are not willing to honor the prepaid tuition. The administrator is saying that I need to pay the money "again". This does not appear to be legal. I paid for a service (the education of my children) and should receive the service. Is this correct?
