STEP 2: Attach Required Documents
Make sure the enrollment documents we have on file are accurate and upload new documents (if applicable).
Once you’ve completed Step 1, continue to the “ATTACHMENTS” section. This is where you’ll find the Tuition Rate information, school calendar, ACH forms, and other informational files.
You can click on each document to open and print, if necessary. If information needs to be updated, download the appropriate document, fill it out, scan it and upload it to the next tab called “REQUESTED DOCUMENTS.”
Click “CONTINUE.”
STEP 3: Verify Personal Information
Verify that address, phone numbers, emails and other family information are correct. In this section, you may choose to be in the family directory.
STEP 4: Review, Submit & Pay Enrollment Fee
This is where you’ll be notified of missing information. Please complete and click “CONTINUE.”
Click “SUBMIT” on the bottom left.
Your $350 enrollment fee will be charged to the payment method on file upon submission of enrollment. You will be charged a 3.5% convenience fee for credit card payments. Current families get a $100 discount when they enroll before March 1.
Admissions and Fundraising
Fundraising supports tuition. Tuition covers 80% of costs including, but not limited to salaries and personnel expenses, insurance, cleaning, teaching supplies, consumables, technology, library, Sycamore online portal subscription, administration, printing, postage, telephone, internet, and utilities. How is the remaining 20% funded?
At King’s Gate, we don’t ask parents to help their students sell goods nor do we participate in any catalog fundraising. We have two main fundraisers: the annual winter Gala and the spring ROAR Week & Amazing gRace.
Your support of these two King’s Gate’s Fundraising efforts contribute another 10% of our income to provide enriched classrooms for hands-on-learning, qualified teachers, solid curriculum, and strong unmatched ratios beyond what can be provided with tuition alone.
The last 10% of our funding comes from the Growing King’s Gate (GKG) funds. These funds are donated by individuals and businesses who partner with us and are earmarked for underwriting salaries and building.
