Fees

Application Fee
A one-time, non-refundable application fee of $100.00 is due with your application. This fee covers administrative costs. You do not need to re-apply or pay the fee each school year. Once the application fee is paid, your child’s application is in the wait pool until a space opens up or he or she ages out of all of our programs to attend kindergarten. Note: This fee is waived for families applying through Connections for Children / CCSM.

Enrollment Fee
A one-time, non-refundable enrollment fee is due when your child is accepted into Hill & Dale Family Learning Center. This fee covers administrative costs and reserves your child’s space in our program.
  • Infant Program: $1,900
  • Toddler Program: $1,400
  • Preschool: $1,000

Annual Materials Fee
Hill & Dale is implementing a $450 per child Annual Materials Fee to help cover costs. The $450 will be billed through CuraCubby upon receipt of signed Original Agreement and Hill & Dale will retain this fee to defray costs of materials and additional safety measures related to the Restrictions.

 


 

Tuition Reduction Program (TRP)
We offer a Tuition Reduction Program (TRP) for qualifying families. To apply for this program, you must have a combined household income of $120,000 or less and be a Santa Monica Resident or work in Santa Monica. TRP is granted to families on a sliding scale of up to 90% off the current tuition rate. The level of TRP awarded is based on the information provided to the program committee from the family and the funds available. TRP applications are available from the Admin office. Please alert the Directors if you are interested in TRP when you apply for enrollment.

 

Connections for Children

Space permitting, Hill & Dale accepts families that have been awarded a child care subsidy by Connections for Children. Additional TRP from Hill & Dale may be available to these families.
