Students applying for Gift of Time Class will be evaluated by a current teacher to evaluate their developmental abilities. After the assessment, the admissions committee reviews the results to determine if they are a candidate for our Gift of Time program.  

What program do you use to process tuition payments and incidentals throughout the year?

We currently use Brightwheel to process all of our tuition payments. Throughout the year, families also use these accounts to charge any incidentals such as spirit shirts or other items to be purchased on campus.
