School Tuition:
Tuition for the Sholem School can be paid in 9 monthly installments or entirely in advance. A discount is given for paying in full (Standard Tuition only, does not apply to Bar/Bas Mitsve fees). The price of the tuition is set according to family income, per the income table below.
Community Membership:
Sholem Community Membership is included automatically with School Tuition. This reflects our philosophy that your child’s Sholem School experience is both about learning and about your family’s participation in our community.
Please also note, with a Sholem Community Membership, your family will obtain discounted prices to many Sholem activities, including our kol nidre observance.

PAYMENT OPTIONS
Remember that your entire family automatically receives Annual Community Membership with any School Tuition purchased.
REFUND POLICY
Before December 1: Those seeking refunds have a choice of 50% of the annual tuition, or a credit to apply 75% of your current year’s tuition to the following year’s tuition.
After December 1: We reduce the amount that can be refunded by 10% per month. So, for example, after February 1, we will refund 30% of the full tuition. Alternatively, we can provide a credit toward the next year’s tuition. The amount of the credit is reduced by 15% per month. So, for example, after February 1 we will provide a credit to apply 45% the current year’s tuition to the next year’s tuition.
For refunds on a monthly auto pay plan, we will reduce the amounts of the remaining payments so that the sum of all payments is less than the tuition amount minus the refund amount.
