Kinderhaus operates an 11-month program from mid-August to mid-July, with a four-week summer break. We also observe scheduled holidays and breaks during the school year. Please refer to our school calendar for exact dates.
Our monthly tuition is based on the number of sessions a child attends at the school. Kinderhaus requires enrollment in a minimum of three days per week per child. Families enrolling for three or four days per week select fixed weekdays. Missed days, including holidays and absences, cannot be exchanged for other weekdays.
- Kinderhaus is open from Monday through Friday.
- Our regular program runs from 8:30 am to 5:30 pm.
- Newly enrolled families can opt out of aftercare (3 pm – 5:30 pm) for the first six months of enrollment.
Families are responsible for full tuition for each full month of the term, regardless of whether the child is absent due to illness or vacation, or if the school is closed for holidays. In July and August, tuition is prorated due to the summer break, which means you will effectively pay 11 months tuition in a school year. Early departure from the program may result in a forfeiture of the student’s deposit. Extenuating circumstances will be considered on a case-by-case basis by the school.

**Kinderhaus believes full day enrollment is best for German immersion and development of social skills. A shorter day is available for newly enrolled families for the first six months of enrollment.
***A 10% sibling tuition discount may be available to families with two children enrolled in the five-day, full-day program. The discount applies to one child’s tuition and is subject to Board approval.

Drop-ins require advance approval by the Director and are subject to availability and staffing. Families may request up to one approved drop-in day per month. The cost for dropping into the regular program is $190 per day. The cost for dropping into the after care program is $50 per day.
