We appreciate your interest in our school. Monteverde Friends School offers local and international students a high quality bilingual education in a unique and diverse community. In the Student Information Package, you will find information regarding our mission, our expectations of students, our expectations of parents, and monthly tuition rates, which you may keep for your records. The Student Registration Form, will enable us to consider your child as a student at our school, once it is filled-out and returned to the school. You may e-mail or fax your documents instead of mailing them, if you prefer.

Fees and Tuition Costs for 2008–2009

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.
