General Program Information:
BENS core program operates 9:00 am to 1:00 pm from early September through the middle of June. Extended Day Schedules until 3:30 pm and 5:30 pm are space dependent.

Early Morning Care (8:30 am – 9:00 am) is available to families who have requested additional morning care and is subject to availability. Early Morning Care is $200/month.

Children attending Gan Galim (3’s) and Gan Hadar (4’s) attend all five days. Children attending Gan Dvorim (2’s) have the option of attending 3, 4 or 5 days/week. Gan Dvorim families who start at less than five days/week can, provided there is space available, elect to increase their child’s attendance when their child is ready.

Application Fees:
For each child, a one-time $50 non-refundable application fee is due with the enrollment application. 

Registration Deposit:
Upon acceptance to the school, a $500 deposit per child is due immediately to reserve a space in the school for Fall.  Deposits are non-refundable, and funds will be applied to the June tuition provided all fees have been paid and the family’s account is current. This deposit is not eligible to be applied to outstanding tuition fees owed in the event a family departs prior to the completion of the school year.

Tuition Fee Structure and Discounts:
Tuition is divided into Core Program and before and after care programs. Tuition is due regardless of any absence, holiday or family vacation.

A 10% sibling discount is offered off the cost of the core program (9:00-1:00 pm price) for each additional child that is enrolled from the same immediate family. The discount will be applied against the core program only and only for the regular program year, not for summer camps or other special camps. The discount will be applied against the smallest core program cost if you have children in different core programs.

A 2% pre-pay discount is applied to families who pay for the entire 10-month school year at the beginning of the year.

Financial Aid:
Financial aid is available to BENS families who are members of Congregation Beth El.  Financial aid is needs-based. Financial aid is not available for BENS summer or winter/spring camp programs.
