Tuition Policies
$250 | Trial Week fee - Most parents wonder if a school will be the fit for their child. The Trial Week is a wonderful opportunity for both home and school to determine if they are are a great fit. We give feedback at the end of the Trial Week if we will proceed with enrollment. If the family is on board, the child can start school at the next available date.
$500 | New Family fee - This is a one time fee for new families joining Princeton Preparatory Schools. This fee serves to support staff development and the further development of Princeton Preparatory's Schools academic programs and facilities.
$300 | Student Material fee - This is an annual fee that goes toward the cost of purchasing and replacing Montessori hands on materials, and Classical Education curriculum for each classroom.
