Tuition is based on enrollment not attendance for 47 weeks* per year.  

This means payment is due in full according to contract, regardless of days in attendance and/or services provided, including sick, holidays and vacations. 

*Our agency is closed a total of 5 weeks:

1. Winter Break
2. Spring Break
3. Summer Break
4. Thanksgiving Week
5. Christmas

Families are not charged for these closures.  Rather, our weekly rate is divided by 12 equal monthly payments.

Rise and Shine Child Care Centers & Family Services Agency's quality program maintains a very low student/teacher ratio of 3:1 and in many  cases it is 2:1. 

• Low ratios
• Diaper service
• Nutrition program
• Assessments
• Parent conferences

In addition to our low ratios our rates provide additional quality-improvement benefits, such as our diapering service.  This service includes diapers, wipes and ointment, when necessary, at no additional cost to families while children are in attendance.

Our nutrition program plays a critical role in supporting the wellness, health, and development of all children enrolled regardless of economic status.

We have a child development specialist who conducts ongoing observations and assessments of our program to ensure that each child's developmental needs are being met. 

Additionally, we offer parent conferences to review individual developmental milestones and discuss strategies for supporting continued growth at home and in our program.
