Thank you for your interest in enrolling with CLS! We are ready for the School Year 2023-2024 to begin.
After September 1, 2023, your child will start 10 business days after we receive your registration. CLS Office will confirm your starting date via email. Your invoice for September tuition fees will be charged according to your starting date.
BEFORE CARE SERVICES PROVIDED BY CLS
Before care (from 7:30 AM to 8:30 AM Mon-Fri). Our program is held at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church 4900 Connecticut Ave. Washington, DC 20008, across the street from Murch Elementary School. Students are dropped off directly to their morning teachers at Murch after the before care. Instructions will be sent prior to the first day of your child. When children come in before their day at school, they can choose what they would like to do: they can read, draw, color, play educational games with their instructors (such as Legos, Apples to Apples, etc.)
DEPOSIT AND TUITION FEES
• Pay a deposit equal to one-month tuition ($150); this deposit will apply to your last month of tuition- usually June 2024. If you wish to withdraw before the end of the school year, it will apply to the last month of tuition. The deposit is not refundable. More information can be found in our handbook, section “termination notice and deposit”.
• Pay the prorated fees prior to your child’s starting date, which will be communicated by the office
After registering on our website and making the first payment online, you will receive an email to complete an authorization form to set up a recurring charge. Tuition fees are payable through recurring payments only, which can be canceled anytime.
WITHDRAWAL FROM THE PROGRAM
We require a 30-day notice to withdraw from the program. The deposit will cover the 30 days of the given notice. Thus, parents are not responsible for any other payment if the withdrawal form is submitted within this time frame. Withdrawals can be made using this link.
The deposit will not be refunded in case of withdrawal from the program.
FINANCIAL AID
Every year, Capitol Language Services establishes a financial aid budget to help families who qualify for financial aid. You must request financial aid in writing; thus, your application must be accepted before your school’s registration deadline.
For guidelines on how to request financial assistance, please e-mail accounting@capitollanguageservices.com. After receiving the guidelines, you must complete all the requirements for financial aid. Once we receive your documentation, we will determine your eligibility, and the amount of financial aid CLS can potentially grant you. If eligible, you will be able to register and pay via our website by the registration deadline.
