Enrollment is on a first come-first serve basis. We guarantee spots to our current families and their siblings if they enroll by November 15, 2023. When you receive an acceptance email, you will be asked to put down your tuition deposit (one month’s tuition which becomes your child’s tuition for May 2025) and a $125 annual registration and technology fee. Deposits/fees for new families must be paid within one week or we will offer the spot to the next family. Deposits/fees for current families will be collected on January 15, 2024.
2024-2025 Tuition Information
In an effort to keep our programming affordable for families, we will not be raising tuition or auxiliary programming fees for the 2024-2025 school year. Approximately 80% of your tuition goes directly to faculty and staff salaries and 12% to facilities maintenance and utilities. Every other operating expense comes out of the remaining 8%. There is a limited amount of financial aid available each year. Please email the director at preschool@chestnuthillpres.org if you would like an application.
