Admissions

To apply (returning families, please skip the first step):

1.  Reach out to the Education Office (educationoffice@ohabei.org) to arrange an initial meeting and tour with one of our administrators.

2. Submit an application through Brightwheel.

   Tip: applications should include the longest schedule a family may need, as it is possible to reduce hours/days but difficult to extend. Schedule changes can be made, space permitting, between application receipt and May 1 for Full Year applications and August 1 for School Year applications. After these dates, 30 days’ notice is required to make any schedule changes and may not be able to be accommodated.

3. Once your application is processed, the TCEE administrative team will email you an invoice for your initial deposit—$1,500 per child. This nonrefundable amount is due within 10 business days of your invoice date in order to secure your child’s spot. Initial deposits must be paid by check made payable to “TCEE”. TCEE does not accept credit or debit card payments. Please contact the office if you have any questions. Please do not combine deposit payments with any other payments (current school year tuition, etc.). Sibling deposits can be paid with the same check.

4. When your initial deposit payment has been processed, the TCEE administrative team will confirm with a registration letter outlining your child’s schedule.

5. In May, you will receive an invoice for the remainder of your deposit. TCEE deposits are equivalent to two months’ tuition (covering your child’s first and last months’ tuition). This amount is due no later than June 1 and must be paid by check.

• Monthly tuition is paid via ACH (automatic clearing house) payments or by check. TCEE does not accept credit or debit card payments. 

• Families will be invoiced monthly on the 1st of each month. Payments are due by the 15th of the month.

• Payments received after the 25th of each month are assessed a $25 late fee

• Families are responsible for any fees associated with checks returned for insufficient funds plus a $25 handling/processing fee.

• Tuition is paid based on a ten (10) or twelve (12) month annualized rate. We have already taken holidays and planned vacation time into account. (Please note: for all TCEE students, school will be closed for December vacation and two weeks of Teacher Professional Development at the end of August.)

• If you are enrolling more than one child in TCEE, a sibling discount of 10% of each child’s total tuition will be deducted from your bill. Please note: the sibling discount does not apply to TCEE’s BEEP on Beacon Extended Day program.

• Those who choose to withdraw after the start of the school year and before March 1 must give thirty (30) days written notice to the Education Director and their tuition deposit payment will be applied to the child’s final month of attendance.  Families who choose to withdraw after March 1 are required to pay for the school year in full.

• Tuition adjustments or refunds will not be made if a child misses school due to illness, vacation, or otherwise, and will not be made if the TCEE is closed because of weather or governmental orders related to public safety.
