School Structure and Tuition

Structure

Our classes are organized into three different groups, based upon age and ability, with a student/teacher ratio of no more than 8 to 1. Our Monday and Friday individual lesson days are from 9 am to 2 pm. Our Tuesday through Thursday classroom activity days are from 9 am to 3 pm. 

White Clay Learning Center also offers its families a variety of options regarding the level of participation the parents wish to have as Monday and Friday home study facilitators. These options are outlined in the monthly tuition schedule below. We offer any second or third child of a family a 10% discount on monthly tuition.

White Clay Learning Center also encourages parent volunteers to assist us with our teaching during the school day. A tuition discount is given to families who wish to commit some of their time with us. Please contact us.

Terms

The tuition is due at the start of each month, except cyber/correspondence, which is payable at the start of each quarter (3 months).  Tuition may also be paid in full at the start of each year. Our yearly tuition is your monthly payment times nine months. There is a $5.00 per day late charge for tuition not paid by the 6^th of each month.

There is also an annual  materials fee of $125.00 per child in K-3; $150 per child in grades 4-secondary (grade 4 participates in the Intermediate science lab) and $125/child in cyber/correspondence. This fee is due with your application. If space is available, this fee will also secure your child’s place on our enrollment.
