Payment:
Tuition is paid in 10 payments during
the first week of classes of each month
from August through May. Late payments
will incur a penalty of ¢500 per
student. Any balance which is more than
2 months overdue will be charged 5%
interest per month. If at the end of
the first semester a family is not up
to date with tuition payments, we
cannot admit their children for the
second semester.
Full-year
commitment:
Registration in the school implies a
commitment to pay tuition for the full
year (less any scholarship granted)
even if your son or daughter does not
finish the school year (whether it is
due to a decision of the parents to
remove the student, or a decision of
the school for academic or behavior
reasons). Exceptions to this may be
made for health reasons (with a
doctor’s excuse), or because of
the family moving away for reasons of
employment (the parents should write a
letter to the director explaining the
situation). Students with previous
arrangements to attend only one
semester will be asked to pay the full
registration fee plus one half of the
year’s tuition.
