Admission is available to any child between
1 and 5 years old and able to walk.
Admission decisions reflect Mi Escuelita’s
commitment to multicultural and
pedagogical excellence by ensuring
enrollment of a cross-section of students
from both genders as well as the ethnic and
socio-economic groups found in our
community, and by ensuring that each class
maintains a core group of Spanish-speaking
children. When possible, priority is given to
siblings of children enrolled in the program.
Other children are accepted in the order in
which their applications are received.
If you are interested in enrolling a child at Mi
Escuelita, you may schedule a visit with our
director for a tour of the program. If you wish to
register a child, you must submit a completed
application and a $35 non-refundable application
fee. As soon as there is an opening for your child,
you will receive a letter to give you the
opportunity to enroll your child and provide you
with a date by which you must submit a
non-refundable $220 confirmation fee to hold the
space for your child. This fee will be used to pay
for materials your child needs and uses during
his/her tenure at Mi Escuelita.
An emergency medical release, copies of
immunization records, and any other forms
provided you by Mi Escuelita must be on file before
a child can start attending.
Tuition is paid monthly and due on the first
of each month. Any payments received after
the 5th of the month are subject to a late
payment fee of $ 25 that will be added to
the following month’s payment. If the 5th is
on a Saturday, Sunday, holiday or bad
weather day, the last permissible day to
make a timely tuition payment will be on the
next day that Mi Escuelita is in session.
Monthly tuition is the same throughout the
year, including months with holidays or
school closings due to bad weather.
REGISTRATION PROCEDURES
FEES AND TUITION
Your child’s first month’s tuition is due in full on the first day of attendance at Mi Escuelita. This
amount will be deposited and credited immediately.
Your child’s last month tuition is also due in full on the first day of attendance at Mi Escuelita. This
tuition will be held in a trust account for the tenure of the child’s time at the school. These funds
will be drawn upon only when a child’s balance is overdue or to credit the last month’s tuition.
Families must replenish the trust account balance if it is withdrawn as well as pay the $25 late
payment fee.
Checks should be made payable to Mi Escuelita and clearly marked with the preschooler’s name. A $25
fee will be charged for returned checks
For income tax preparation, you can request the EIN (Employer Identification Number) of the
preschool from the director.
Families are responsible for the full tuition payment every month regardless of absences due to family
vacation, illness or any other reasons.
Written notice of the intention to withdraw from Mi Escuelita is required one full calendar month
prior to the last day of attendance.
If a child withdraws without notice in the middle of the month, there will be no tuition
reimbursements.
Scholarships and tuition subsidy for income-eligible children are available. To see information about
