How Our Pricing Works

Anchor operates as a cooperative model. Families pay a modest co-op registration fee each semester. Individual class fees are set by teachers based on materials and instruction.

Registration Fee

$30/child

A per-child fee due each semester covering facility costs, insurance, and administrative expenses.

Capped at 3 children per family—additional children are included at no extra cost.

Class Fees

Up to $85–$115

Per student per semester. Actual pricing varies by class based on materials, lab equipment, curriculum, and instruction.

Class fees are capped at $85–$115 (depending on age group) to keep classes accessible while compensating teachers fairly.

Club Fees

$30

Per student per semester, all grade levels. Clubs run during the club hour at the end of each co-op day.

Study Hall

$40

Per student per semester, ages 9 and up. A supervised space for independent work, reading, or quiet study.

Additional Costs to Consider

Curriculum for at-home instruction days
Basic school supplies or specific class materials
Field trip fees (if applicable)
Lunch or snacks on co-op days

Enrollment & Payment

Enrollment Limits

Enrollment is intentionally limited to maintain intentional class sizes. Priority is typically offered to returning families before new families are accepted.

Payment Schedule

Registration and class fees are due at enrollment. Payment must be received within one week of confirmation or the spot will be offered to the next family.

Refund Policy

Refund requests must be submitted in writing to leadership only. The deadline for fall semester refunds is June 1st and January 1st for the spring semester. Refunds may be denied if a student’s withdrawal would bring a class below its minimum enrollment threshold. Registration fees and club fees are non-refundable.
