Enrollment
Process and the Pledge System
The School of the Beartooths acknowledges that education is a gift
given to the children by this School community and is not a "service"
to be purchased by an individual family. Additionally, as part of
the non-discriminatory policy, the School of the Beartooths seeks
to include families of all financial abilities. To this end, the
School requires tuition "pledges" from all families: the school's
financial and other needs are addressed in these pledges, and all
families of students are encouraged to pledge as generous a commitment
toward tuition and volunteer and committee work as possible. The
belief behind the pledge system is that our trust of and dedication
to one another is crucial to the success of the school. Under the
pledge system everyone who supports the school chooses to do so
out of their own conscience and sense of commitment.Your gifts of
energy and time are highly valued and are what make the school a
success! Pledges will be reviewed by the Pledge Review Committee
and all information exchanged will be confidential. A deposit of
15% of the annual tuition is required. Tuition payment plans for
the remainder of tuition are available on a quarterly, semi-annual
or annual basis. For more information, please contact the School
at 446-1563 or contact@schoolofthebeartooths.org.
