How Much Does it Cost?

Registration Fee

There is a nonrefundable $175/family registration fee due whenever you initially sign up for one or more classes for the year.

Course Costs

A full-year course costs $1,575. We meet for roughly sixty (60) 90-minute sessions, which comes out to about $17/hour.

There are no additional fees for lab science or art. Parents are responsible for book and curriculum purchases (teachers do their best to recommend used editions, etc., to keep costs down).

Tuition Payment

You can pay upfront for the year in September, in two installments (September and January), or in nine monthly installments (September through May). We do not charge extra to pay monthly.

Drop Deadline: August 1

You are responsible for your full tuition bill for any courses you are signed up for on or after August 1, even if you decide to discontinue taking courses with us. We do this for a simple reason: As a lean tuition-funded organization, we rely on incoming money to make decisions about running courses, hiring teachers, etc., so we count on the tuition coming in that is promised as of August 1.
