Unfortunately, with increases to minimum wage and other rising costs Santa Rosa Rise and Shine will be raising rates.  The increase will affect most fees.

This increase does not affect currently enrolled families unless there is a schedule change.

Tuition is based on enrollment and not on attendance.  

This means payment is due in full according to contract, regardless of days in attendance and/or services provided, including sick, holidays and vacations.

This fee is associated with insurance, enrollment process, client file, supplies necessary for newly enrolled child and reserving available space if required.
