If the student is applying for grades 2 through 8, the child visits the class for 3–5 days.

The school notifies the family of the acceptance decision
Tuition Assistance
As an independent school, we rely solely on tuition income and fundraising to meet our annual expenses. We work to keep expenses as low as possible while maintaining the quality of our educational program. We are committed to building a school whose student body reflects the ethnic, cultural and socio-economic diversity of Sacramento, and we seek families who are committed to Waldorf education for their children
-
Currently, 41% of students receive Tuition Assistance grant
-
We strive to ensure that our education is within reach for families from diverse socio-economic backgrounds. Awards are granted to families based on their relative financial need compared to other tuition assistance applicants.
-
Students from kindergarten to 8th grade are eligible to apply. Preschool children are also eligible if they have an older sibling in the school
How to Re-Enroll
To keep the re-enrollment process simple, our families are automatically re-enrolled for the following year unless they notify the school that they will not be returning. The discounted re-enrollment fee of $375 is offered to families that complete early enrollment by February 23, 2024.
The Tuition Assistance Program Deadline is January 16, 2024.
Returning Camellia families will receive a new agreement via Ravenna, our new tuition management program.
