Tuition & Fees for 2020-21 School Year
All tuition payments are due on the first business day of each month. Families have the option of choosing a 12-month schedule (year-round care) or a 10-month schedule (no care needed for June and July). The monthly tuition and registration fee are the same for either option, but these options allow the school to plan for staffing during the summer when some families may not need childcare. We ask that each family choose carefully and give at least 30 days notice if they need to make changes. If you wish to make any change to your child’s enrollment, please feel out a Change Request form available in the office.
Tuition is based on an annual budgeted amount and divided into equal monthly payments. Tuition is due even in the case of school closure for any reason. No tuition reductions will be made for absences due to family vacation, illness, etc.

The Willow School is proud to offer one Georgia Lottery Pre-K Class. The school day (8:30-3:00) is provided at no charge to families.
Children can drop off as early as 8:00 am. Families that need after care will be charged for that time based on the fees listed above. Aftercare is charged on a daily rate and families are only charged for days actually used.
The Pick-Up Day Rate is for those times when the GA Lottery Pre-K class is closed according to the school calendar, but The Willow School is still open. For example, the GA Lottery Pre-K class will follow the City Schools of Decatur calendar. There are times when CSD are closed, but The Willow School is open. Families that need care on those days can attend school and pay the daily rate.
