FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Upon enrollment a Materials Fee of $250 per child is required and acts as a deposit to hold your child’s space. This fee is used primarily for facility improvements and to purchase large equipment. This fee is charged annually. 1) Tuition payments are due by the 1st of each month (September through May) and late after the 5th of the month. Tuition is based upon the operating costs of the school over the course of the year, and for this reason tuition amounts are the same each month regardless of the number of actual school days in a particular month. 2) Second Child Discount: Alaya offers a 10% discount to families who have more than one child in attendance. This discount applies to the child with the lesser tuition cost. 3) Social Service Families: Alaya maintains a contract with the City of Boulder Children’s Services for CCAP, CLIFF, and GAP Programs. Parents who receive assistance should speak to the directors and their case worker to determine eligibility.
