Registration & Fees |
We are delighted that you are interested in pursuing your academics with the Peak Centre Academy community. Peak Centre Academy prides itself on providing a quality education in a stimulating and challenging environment. As an independent school, Peak Centre Academy does not receive the federal and provincial funding that public schools receive. Peak Centre Academy relies on tuition fees, donations and other revenue sources to cover its operating costs. It is common knowledge that the benefits brought by attending a private school come at a cost. However, many people do not realize that these costs can be spread over the entire school year. Peak Centre Academy payments are spread out over the year in six manageable payments. Please see below, the tuition schedule for 2016-17. Please contact our Director Ken Brunet if you have any questions regarding the financial aspect of the Academy. |

- To plan the operating budget, Peak Centre Academy establishes fees and makes contractual commitments in advance of the academic year. Therefore, when a student is enrolled it is understood that a place is reserved for the entire school year and parents or guardians are responsible for the full amount of the fees. Peak Centre Academy reserves the right to suspend or dismiss any student whose behavior or cooperation is, in the opinion of the Principal and Director, detrimental to the standards of the school. A pro-rated fee with the loss of enrolment/consumable fees will be charged for any dismissals. Any late payment will lead to the student’s suspension until fees are fully paid. Any exceptional situations will be dealt by our Director Ken Brunet.
