Microschool Tuition & Fees
Collective Kind is the first network of microschools providing early care for families of all backgrounds in NYC.
We're proud to offer sliding scale tuition rates for families and flexible corporate plans for employers of all sizes.
We run all of our programming on a sliding scale based on household income. This allows us to have tuition reduction built into our tuition model so that right off the bat our programs include and support economic diversity.
Tuition reduction is not based on qualifying for need or scholarship, but instead open to all.
Yes - some families pay more…and some families pay less. What we see in our bank accounts, how much we think we can afford, how much money we see others spending - all of this can bring up big feelings.
We recommend reading THIS piece from Embracing Equity to think through all those feelings in relation to a sliding scale tuition model.
We never want to turn away a family we are able to support - so please reach out and start a conversation with us!
