Payment Plans. We prefer payment in full for the entire year upon registration. This reduces processing time and costs. However, we are sensitive to the challenge of paying in full for multiple classes at one time, so we have a standard payment plan. Families with unique financial needs can also arrange a customized payment plan. We do not charge additional fees or percentages for payment plans. We send email reminders and invoices as a courtesy, but families are responsible for tracking their own payments and paying on time.

Family Registration Fee. The Family Registration Fee is due with the initial tuition payment and is not refundable unless we are unable to offer any of the requested seats.

We understand the financial challenges of having multiple students in school at the same time, particularly for large families. Therefore, we do not charge student registration fees. You can register as many students as you want without additional charges.

Payment Due At Registration. One-fourth of the total fees and tuition is due immediately upon registration. Families are not charged for wait list seats, nor are they charged the registration fee until they hold at least one open seat. For a wait list seat, the one-fourth tuition is due immediately after we notify the family of the seat opening. If we do not receive payment within 10 days of notification, we will not commit to holding the seat.

Payment Due By Aug 1. The second payment of one-fourth of the total fees and tuition is due by August 1. Except in special circumstances when a family makes prior arrangements with us, we will not commit to holding seats past August 1 without full payment of this balance.

Optional Payment Due By Oct 1. Many families request to divide their Dec 1 final payment into smaller increments, so we have calculated an optional payment due by Oct 1. This payment of one-fourth of the total fees and tuition reduces the amount of the Dec 1 final payment from one-half of the total to one-fourth of the total.

Payment Due By Dec 1. The final portion of the total fees and tuition is due by December 1. Families who register for a second semester course after this date have 10 days to pay fees and tuition in full.
