Tuition Deposit Information

Due to our transition to Blackbaud, the tuition deposit normally billed to your account in January will not be billed until a later date. The current plan is to assess the payment at the end of February. The change does not impact the enrollment status of any student for the 2023-24 school year. Please refer to yesterday's email from Mr. Bradley for more information.
