Tuition: Tuition is an annual commitment. However, payments may be divided into ten (10) equal installments due the 1st of each month, beginning August 1st. If the August payment is not received by August 15th, we cannot guarantee a space for your child. If students withdraw after August 15th, the August payment is non-refundable. Students are considered enrolled for the entire year (Aug-May). Any student beginning school after August will owe tuition through June since we are on a ten month payment schedule.
A $25.00 late fee is added to the balance if not paid by the 15th of each month. If two children of the same family are enrolled in the preschool, full tuition is paid for the child with the higher rate and a 10% discount is given for the child with tuition equal to or less than the child with the higher rate.
Registration Fee: A NON-REFUNDABLE REGISTRATION FEE of $200.00 per year, per child is due at the time of registration. The registration fee includes an earthquake preparedness kit, age appropriate curriculum, art and classroom supplies, and Preschool T-shirt for field trips.
AGE REQUIREMENT: 2- 5 years old who are potty trained. The 2 day, 3 day or 5 day class placement is based on birth date.
2 day classes: 2 years old by May 2.
3 day or 5 day classes: 3 years old by May 2.
5 day classes: 4+ years old by May 2.

Since we pay for the activities in advance, there will be no refunds.

Guidelines
Parent Visits
Parents are always welcome to visit our preschool. We ask that you make an appointment for your initial visit in order to ensure the time necessary to answer all your questions and observe the classroom for 15 minutes. Any time after that, you are welcome to drop in and observe for a short period of time. We ask that you stop by the preschool office to check in first.
Parent Orientation
A Parent Orientation Night is held prior to the first day of preschool in order for parents to further acquaint themselves with the goals, policies and programs of the preschool. It is a time for parents to meet the teachers, view the facilities and complete final registration procedures. An Open House is held prior to the first day of preschool so the child can become familiar with the facilities and meet other classmates.
Immunization Prior to Enrollment
No child shall be unconditionally admitted as a student of the preschool, unless prior to admission, written verification is presented showing the child has been immunized against diphtheria, pertusis, tetanus, poliomyelitis, measles, mumps, and rubella in a manner and with immunizing agents approved by the State Department of Public Health. The only exception to this policy is a child whose licensed physician has submitted a written statement that immunization cannot be given to the child.
