Tuition

Every child begins life with wonder, curiosity, and extraordinary potential. We believe children are competent, capable, and protagonists in their own learning. At Our Beginning School, we honor childhood by creating beautiful environments, serving nutrient-dense meals, fostering meaningful relationships, and cultivating a thriving school community where children, parents, families, faculty, and staff learn and grow together.  

Tuition rates are effective September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2027.
