The normal preschool day is Monday-Friday from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM. For your child to get the full benefit of the program, it is best that your child be at school by 8:10. Coming in late interrupts the class time and also disrupts your child’s routine. For your convenience, children may be dropped of anytime between 7:00 AM and 8:00 AM, free of charge. If there are a sufficient number of children needing care after 3:00, St Vincent Preschool will offer an extended care program, from 3:00-6:00, at an additional charge. Any child remaining at school past 3:00 will be charged for extended care. If you pick up your child after 6:00, the late fee is $5.00 per fifteen minutes. Extended care and late fee charges will be billed monthly, separate from the tuition.
In order to be admitted to St. Vincent Preschool, children must be:
-
three years old by September 1st of the academic year to enter preschool
-
four years old by September 1st of the academic year to enter Pre-K.
-
All children must be toilet trained and they must be able to clean themselves after they use the toilet. The preschool staff is not allowed to clean a child after they use the bathroom. Disposable “pull-ups” are not allowed.
St Vincent Preschool serves families in the community who subscribe to the school’s philosophy and agree to abide by the policies and regulations of the school and the diocese. Priority is generally given to:
-
Families in good standing with St Vincent Parish, currently enrolled, or seeking enrollment.
-
Children of families whose siblings are registered at St Vincent Elementary School.
-
Children of families in good standing and registered at other Catholic parishes.
-
All other children whose parents, by their behavior, demonstrate an acceptance of the St Vincent Parish philosophy.
An annual registration fee of $100 per child is due at the time of registration. This fee is non-refundable and non-transferable.
Tuition is $580.00 per child, per month. Please keep in mind that our financial responsibilities continue whether or not your child is in school. Therefore, if your child is absent due to illness or vacation, the tuition amount due will remain the same.
