Tuition, Fees & Payment Options

Tuition


Preschool 3 & 4 Year Olds

We use a developmentally appropriate, play-based approach that encourages children to explore, experiment and problem-solve. Children engage in hands-on learning through a balance of structured and unstructured play as well as teacher guided activities.


Kindergarten

Our Kindergarten program provides a well-rounded curriculum in religion, language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, social-emotional learning, physical education, music, and visual arts.
