Tuition Info & Policies
All parents are required to pay a $400.00 deposit (Registration Fee) to hold their child’s place in the upcoming academic year. This deposit is due at the time of registration. The deposit is part of the total tuition but is non-refundable in case of withdrawal. The deposit is forfeited in the event of withdrawal.

As such, any tuition monies paid can not be refunded and any outstanding tuition balance is still owed. However, the enrollment may be cancelled in writing by the parents without penalty (except forfeit of the $400.00 reservation fee) prior to 90 days before the start of the program year. If enrollment is cancelled after said 90 days but prior to 60 days before the start of the program year, one months tuition plus fees are due. If enrollment is cancelled after said 60 days but prior to 30 days before the start of the program year, two months tuition plus fees are due. Cancellation less than 30 days from the start of the program year will result in full tuition due.

Half of the year’s tuition and all fees are due by May 1st. The remaining balance is due by July 1st. After August 1 obligation to pay tuition fees for the full academic year is unconditional and no portion will be refunded or canceled in the event of a child’s absence or withdrawal from the program.
All children must be completely toilet-trained and self-sufficient in taking care of their own toileting needs in order to attend the preprimary class. In the event that a child does not begin school because s/he is not toilet trained any tuition monies paid is not refundable and outstanding tuition is still due.
