About Tuition Rates

Our rates are for guarantee, not attendance. Why?

Due to the high volume of inquiries, we remain committed to prioritizing established care and emergency needs for the families we serve. At the heart of our work are the meaningful relationships we build with our students—this is our highest priority.

We want to be clear: we are not babysitters. We are trained professionals who pursue ongoing education each year and proudly uphold the highest standards set by the State of South Dakota.

Please note: Tuition rates are reviewed annually and may be adjusted to reflect changes in national inflation, minimum wage requirements, and our commitment to retaining high-quality staff.
