August
Parent Information Meeting
As always, our goal is to provide a
quality environment for your child at the best price. Tuition can be
paid in full, by semester, or by the month. As in the past, we continue
to offer prompt payment discounts to those who pay on or before the
first of the month. Also, we offer a further discount for those who pay
once for the entire year or twice a year by semester-(August 1st and
January 1st). Monthly tuition will be divided into 10 equal payments.
The first payment is due by August 1st. Each succeeding month will be
paid in accordance with our tuition policy: Aug. 1st, Sept. 1st, Oct.
1st, Nov. 1st, Dec. 1st, Jan. 1st, Feb. 1st, March 1st, April 1st and
May 1st. With the first payment due on or before August 1st, this gives
us enough time to open spots for families on the waiting list. Payments
may be dropped off at the school or mailed. New families who have
already paid the $100.00
New Student Deposit should deduct that amount from the first payment.
This deposit
is non refundable if you make a change after August 1st.
There is a link to our tuition rates
on
the home page.
As a reminder, we need a current Immunization Certificate on file for
every student at the beginning of the school year.
According to law your child will NOT be allowed to enter school without
a current form on file. Remember to ask your pediatrician for a form at
your child’s annual physical. Kindergarten children will need a
complete physical and a copy of their birth certificate. An eye exam is
not required for private Kindergarten
students but is required for those attending public Kindergarten. We
must have the Kentucky Immunization Certificate (EPID-230). If your
doctor does not have these forms, they should get in touch with the
Northern Kentucky District Health Department at (859) 431-1704.
If a change has occurred over the summer (such as address,e-mail
address, phone or
name) please let me know prior to August 1st. I will be printing the
Trent Roster and would like to have all information correct.
We will have a Parent Information
Meeting in August (see website for
date)
from
7:00 to 8:00 pm. (Please do not bring your children). The
meeting will
be held at Washington Platform Banquet Center, 921 Monmouth Street,
Newport.
The agenda for this meeting is as follows:
7:00 - 7:15 Socialize and Volunteer
sign up for committees and parties.
7:15 - 8:00 Introductions of Trent
Staff and all parents, Emergency

This meeting is very important and should be attended by at least one
parent from each family. We will be handing out the Trent Information

Montessori Workshops--for new parents
Kindergarten Parent's Meeting
All of these meetings are held at the school and children are NOT to
attend.
The Montessori workshops will give an overview of the Montessori method
and demonstrations of some of the materials and how they work. All new
parents who would like to learn a little more about Montessori are
encouraged to attend.
The all day session for Kindergarten students is a special time that
will include in-depth classroom time, as well as nature walks, crafts,
and possible field trips. Students should bring their lunch. After this
week, the Kindergarten students will return at the regular class
schedule.
The all school picnic will give an opportunity for the students and the
parents to get to know one another. This will be a very informal
gathering and we ask that you bring your own picnic dinner and a
blanket and/or lawn chairs.
We will go over details at the Parent Meeting, but feel free to call if
you have any other questions. Please leave a message if you don’t get
an answer, as I will be vacationing at various times throughout the
summer, but I will eventually get back to you.
