Tuition is based on an annual rate divided into 10 monthly payments. Tuition may be paid in advance
annually, semi-annually, or monthly. We accept Personal Checks, Money Orders, Cashier’s checks or
Credit/Debit Card payments. We do not accept actual cash for tuition payments, please convert this to one fo
the forms described. Monthly payments are due on the 20th of each month.
Although we attempt to keep this list current, please contact us for the current rates.
Note: In a recent survey of Montessori schools in San Diego County of similar quality, Chase Ranch was the
most competitively priced. We not only have the finest Montessori program, we also have the lowest rates!
Current clients continue at current rates until June.
