Fees and Tuition
Once we have had the opportunity to meet you and your child, our Admissions team will provide you with access to the applicable registration form. To fully secure your registration/re-enrollment, our registration/re-enrollment and September tuition fees will be due either during our re-enrollment period (by the first Friday in March each year) or immediately upon notice of a successful application. This allows us to plan staffing/resources for the school year.
Since we are a registered non-profit organization, no taxes are charged on any of our fees.
