2011-2012 Financial Policies

Tuition
The Inn Street annual tuition is $10,800

Application Fee
A $50.00 processing fee is due for each child applying to the school. A $25.00 application fee is due for each additional sibling. This fee is non-refundable and is not applicable towards tuition.

Tuition Deposit and Payments
In order to secure your child's placement, a non-refundable deposit of $1,000.00 is due on or before March 1, 2011. This deposit will be applied to your child's tuition.

Tuition Payments
Tuition, less deposit, may be paid in one of the following ways:
1) One payment. Tuition is discounted $100.00 per family if received by June 1, 2011.
2) Two equal payments, due June 1, 2011 and November 1, 2012, with no discount.
3) Eight month payment plan, starting June 1, 2011 through March 2012. If you choose this option, you will be asked to submit eight predated checks to the school by June 1, 2011.

Withdrawal/Dismissal
In the event of unexpected withdrawal or dismissal after May 1, 2011, the financially responsible parent or guardian is liable for the full year's tuition. Because our commitments for salaries, rent and maintenance are on an annual basis, and because tuition is our sole source of income, the withdrawal or extended absence of a student does not reduce operating costs, therefore, no refunds or cancellation of fees can be expected.

Materials Fee
This annual fee is applied toward the purchase and maintenance of learning materials in your childís Montessori environment.
Lower Elementary: $350.00
Upper Elementary: $400.00
Middle School: $500.00

Activity Fee
The annual Activity Fee is used for field trips and performances during the school year.
Lower Elementary: $200.00
Upper Elementary/Middle School: $250.00

Child Care
Childcare is offered from 7:45 - 9:00 a.m. and from 3:00 - 5:30 p.m. each day. Childcare may also be available during school vacations. Childcare is billed at the end of each month at the rate of $8.00 per hour.

Financial Aid
Limited financial aid is available on the basis of demonstrated need.
