In order to try to maintain the accessibility of our school to families from a variety of financial circusmstances, we try to keep the tuition low. This means that tuition alone does not  cover the costs of running our school. We rely on the entire school community to  raise funds throughout the year to support  our normal operations and to meet  any additional wants and needs of the school community. Families are encouraged to participate actively in the operation of the school and in our  fundraising efforts throughout the year and to make tax-deductible financial contributions to the school when possible to ensure the vitality of our organization.   

Payment Plans

 We do offer a payment plan to try and accomodate family needs.  Families can choose to pay in full or break tuition into two, three or seven payments.

Tuition Assistance

We are aware that even with a payment plan, the tuition rate we have set rate is still prohibitive to some families  and we strive to be accessible to all.   If paying for tuition under a payment plan still will not work for you,  we encourage you to think creatively,  reach out to resources around you and  contact us. We hope to have some some form of tuition assistance for  2008-2009 and are currently working out the details.    Please start by checking out the Maine Childrens Scholarship Fund to see if you may be eligible for a scholarship.
