Payment Schedule and Options

Application

IOHS requires payment of the Application fee before processing a student application.

Enrollment

IOHS requires payment of the Enrollment fee and a Non-Refundable Deposit, prior to enrollment at

Island Oak High School.  The non-refundable deposit on fees is applied to the final period of the

tuition contract.  This deposit will be retained in the event of an early withdrawal or

dismissal to protect the financial wellbeing of the school.

Remaining Fee Payment

Options for payment of the remaining fees:

●         Payment in full – 

q       Exchange Students are required to pay the total fees at time of enrollment

q       All other students will receive a 3% reduction on the Tuition amount for fees paid in full at time of enrollment.

●         Payable monthly - Parent/guardian(s) supply postdated cheques, due the first of each month of attendance until the final period of the tuition contract when the non-refundable deposit is deducted from payment(s).

Building Fund

The Steiner Educational Society is a not-for-profit organization.  The Society accepted an option

to purchase the school site in late 2004.  While we can now renovate to better serve our students,

construction costs have risen markedly and we need additional funds to move ahead with plans.  

Therefore we ask that families consider including a tax receiptable donation of $100/family. 

Every dollar received at this time will allow us to focus less on fund-raising and more on our

educational objectives in the year ahead.

Early Enrollment

The Enrollment fee is waived or reduced by $50 for students enrolled before May 01.   At this

time, the non-refundable Deposit on Tuition can be post-dated for as late as August 01, 2007.  

Sibling Discounts

When more than one member of a family attends Island Oak, we offer a reduction in fees. 

2^nd child  25%,      3^rd child  50%,     4^th child  free. 

There is a 10% reduction  if a younger sibling attends Sunrise Waldorf School

Tuition Assistance

Some assistance is available for a limited number of students in financial need.   The tuition assistance process can take up to three weeks, and must be completed before a student can be enrolled. 

Late Payment and NSF Cheques

IOHS will apply a fee of $20 to NSF cheques and late payments.
