2011/2012 School Year - Tuition Update
The Board has reviewed the tuition and has voted to increase the tuition by approx 3.9% for the full year. Our annual tuition still translates into an hourly rate of about $ 8.83, which is very low in comparison to similar offerings. Our quality is top notch and we are one of the few handpicked schools globally to have received a special honors award as "Partner School for the Future" from the German Government.
