We're new to your school. When can we register?

 What is the deposit for?
The deposit you pay at registration serves as both a non-refundable enrollment deposit and the first of your ten tuition payments. After the deposit, families may choose to pay the remaining tuition in full by cash, check, credit card, or PayPal in September, or in nine equal monthly payments from September through May via ACH automatic bank draft. The deposit allows us to secure your child’s spot and begin preparing for the school year, including purchasing supplies, snacks, and materials, registering for field trips, and labeling items with your child’s name. Except for a backpack, no additional supplies or snacks are needed. Families who need an individualized payment plan are welcome to contact us to arrange one.
