January & February Billing: January billing took place after the 1st of January instead of December 20th. | On January 20th the normal billing schedule will resume for February tuition.

2021 – 2020 Enrollment: It’s time to make plans for the next school year. Can you believe it?! Good News! Your child’s space has already been reserved. On February 20, your account will be automatically billed a non-refundable $250 deposit (per family) to confirm the reservation. In September, the non-refundable $250 deposit will be applied toward the Materials and Supplies fee of $250. This fee is used to purchase new supplies & equipment for the children throughout the year. After March 1, we will begin filling spaces with children on our waiting list. New applications will also be accepted if space permits. Space is limited in every class. If your child will not be attending for the upcoming school year, please complete this online form by 2/15. We look forward to celebrating our 41st year with you and your family.
