    Rolling Admission
    Throughout the school year, we're accepting students ages 5-18 for both full time and part time enrollment.

    Tuition for full time students is on a sliding scale based on your family's financial need, capping at a maximum of $10,300 per student per year. We use a third party company, FACTS Tuition Management to help determine how to allocate financial assistance to families in need and to help families easily pay their tuition in monthly installments throughout the school year, if needed. You can fill out an online financial assessment application through FACTS to find out what your sliding scale tuition rate would be.

    Part time enrollment (anywhere from 1 day - 4 days a week) is on a fixed scale of $2,060 / day for the year (e.g. if you enroll Mondays and Wednesdays, tuition for the year would be $4,120, etc.) We keep our schedule as flexible as possible for part time students but require that everyone enrolled register for the time slot of our School Meeting (currently held on Wednesday mornings). Half days are allowed so long as a student comes for at minimum two half days a week or one full day.

    Please see our online application for more details and for the application process or contact us.
