Enrollment

Our tuition rate for the 2023 - 2024 school year is $1,950 for full day Preschoolers, Monday to Friday, 7:30 to 5:00 year round. Tuition increases 5-10% annually. An app fee of $85 must be turned in with each full day application, if there is a spot available that you wish to take you must also pay a deposit of $1,950.  Tuition paid directly to RIFC may vary among families due to Seattle Preschool Program (SPP) participation and potential subsidy programs. 

• Part Day Program is funded by Early Childhood Education and Assistance Program (ECEAP) and is free for families that qualify. This session runs Mon-Thurs, 8:30-11:30 for AM and 12:30-3:30 for PM.
• School Day Program is funded by the Seattle Preschool Program and ECEAP, free for families that qualify.  You must live within the Seattle city limits. This class runs Mon-Fri, from 8:30am to 2:30pm.
• Full Day Program is funded by the Seattle Preschool Program, if you fall within the guidelines you may qualify for subsidized preschool. The Child Care Subsidy Program and the Child Care Assistance Program are two resources that can help cover some tuition costs.
