No. The Growing Tree is open except during extreme weather conditions. If you are uncertain, listen to WKSR for an announcement. If there is none, assume that we are open.

No. Our students must be registered and follow a regular weekly schedule to attend.

Not at this time. We prefer check payments. If you must make a cash payment, please bring in the exact amount or we will apply any extra amount to your child’s account.

Yes. If there is more than one child from the family in the program, a $2.00 per day discount will be given on full day rates for 5 days per week or $1.00 per day discount will be given on either 2 or 3 full days per week. There is no discount on less than full day attendance. The discount will be given only on the children other than the first attending child.

Many of our age groups do have a waiting list. However, we do recommend that you call and check the status of the age group in question.

Your child is never too young to be placed on our enrollment list. There is no cost and no obligation. Many mothers call when they find out that they are expecting and place their anticipated baby on our waiting list.

Your child must pay a yearly registration fee (currently $35.00) and a deposit equal to one week’s tuition.

Children with special requirements may be accepted if provided with a full-time assistant (paid by parents) and/or if there are reasonable accommodations the school can make to provide adequate or safe care for the child.
