Tuition & Financial Aid
Specific information about tuition and fees becomes available each year in January for the following school year. Once a child has been accepted to CDS, a non-refundable, non-transferable, enrollment deposit is required to secure a place in the program offered that will be credited toward the overall tuition fee.
A non-refundable, non-transferable, deposit is required upon enrollment each year. This includes a $200 PRO Activity fee plus 10% of tuition for all programs except Kindergarten.
Important Information
- A non-refundable deposit, equal to $5,000.00 for Kindergarten programs or 10% of the annual tuition for all other programs, plus $200 PRO activity fee is due with the signed contract. The deposit is applied towards tuition and is considered non-refundable. Withdrawal or changes prior to the end of the school year do not allow for a return or adjustment of the deposit.
