How Much Tuition Will You Be Billed Each Month?
MDS averages the number of school weeks per month over the course of the school year. This means your tuition will be the same amount each month, regardless of how many school weeks are actually in that month. Monthly tuition is determined by the number of hours your child attends each week by 4 (the average number of school weeks per month).

Late Pick Up
Your planned schedule is as listed on your enrollment form. Any changes need to be approved for staffing purposes. Any permanent changes should be made through the Director by email. We schedule our staff according to the number of students scheduled for any particular time. Time outside of your child’s schedule (unless approved) could cause the teachers to be out of ratio. If your child is dropped off before or picked up past their scheduled time, you will be required to pay an additional fee of $5.00 per minute.
The program ends promptly at 5:30 PM. If a parent/guardian does not show up to pick up their child by 5:30, the teachers will immediately call the parent/guardian and emergency contacts. If the child remains at the school at 6:00 pm without communication from the parent/guardian and no designated person arrives to pick up the child, then the police will be contacted and a police officer will come to the school and take the child to the police station.
