Enrollment and Tuition Information for the 2012-13 Academic School Year
(August 27, 2012 - May 31, 2013)
Parents and guardians: Be sure to allow sufficient lead time for visits to the school, paperwork, and orientation before your child’s first day. Depending on the time of year, the class, and your child’s readiness, this could require from two weeks to up to several months.
1. Site visits: First attend an Open House. If no Open House is available, schedule an appointment to meet with the Director and take a tour. A second visit may then be scheduled to observe a classroom.
2. Application: Submit both the Admissions Application and the Student Profile with the non-refundable application fee ($100) by March 1*. A complete enrollment package will then be provided to you and a spot will be held for 30 days. An interview will be scheduled for Elementary applicants.
3. Enrollment Agreement: A signed Enrollment Agreement and deposit must be returned within 30 days to confirm your child’s place in the school. The deposit will be applied to the year’s tuition or program fee.
4. Payment and remaining enrollment forms: The Program Fee for Elementary is due July 1. The first monthly (of half-year) payment for Primary, Transition, and Early Primary is due August 1. All remaining enrollment forms are also due on those dates.
5. Mid-Year Enrollment: Mid-year enrollments may be accepted if space is available.
6. Waiting List: A waiting list will be started once available spaces are filled. An application is required; a deposit may be requested.
Deadlines for the Academic Year:
Admissions Application – March 1*. *(Applications will be accepted past this point if spaces are still available.)
Enrollment Agreement – Within 30 days after receiving the enrollment package.
Program Fee or First Tuition Payment and Enrollment Forms – July 1 for Elementary; August 1 for Primary, Transition, and Early Primary. A place for the child will be held only as long as paperwork and payments are received according to the deadlines above. Payments will not be refunded if the enrollment process is not completed.
All payments are non-refundable.
