• An annual Registration Fee of $200 is due at the time of enrollment. $75 of this fee is nonrefundable and the remaining $125 will be applied toward the tuition payment for your child's first month of preschool. If your child is withdrawn from preschool before their first month of attendance, the entire $200 Registration Fee will be nonrefundable.    
• The last month’s Tuition Deposit (June) is also due at the time of enrollment.  
• Paying the Registration Fee and last month’s Tuition Deposit reserves your child’s place in class for the entire school year.      
• The last month’s Tuition Deposit can be applied to early withdrawal as long as the Enrollment Modification or Withdrawal Form is signed and submitted within the time frame outlined in the 2026-27 Tuition and Fees Agreement.
• Tuition payments are due monthly, by the 5th day of each calendar month.   
• The one-time, nonrefundable annual Materials Fee is to be paid directly to Natural Start Preschool on your child’s first day of attendance. Payment may be given to your child’s teacher or to our director in the form of check or cash. Please make checks out to Natural Start Preschool.  
• The completed Registration Packet must be submitted to preschool staff on your child's first day of attendance.
