Program Details

How old do my children have to be?

We accept children between the ages of three and five years old.

How much is the school tuition?

First year tuition is $11,494 for 11 months (there is no 9.5 month tuition). Second year (pre-k)/continuing students, and incoming siblings of “Graduates”, pay less than the above, emphasizing that this is a two-year program.

What days/time is school in session?

School runs each day from 9:00am-1:00pm. You get to choose any three mornings per week, with four and five day a week schedules available by request.

What is your extended day policy?

Early arrival (as early as 8AM) and extended care (as late as 5pm) require prior arrangement. The cost is $15 if a child needs to arrive before school starts at 9:00am, and $35 until 4pm.

When are the children on vacation?

The Gazelle Creative Learning School calendar is coordinated with the school district calendars of Burlingame, Hillsborough and San Mateo-Foster City elementary school districts. The 2025 - 2026 school year calendar can be found here, including key dates such as photo day, graduation day, and more.

You will be contacted prior to starting, to send in the second (pre-k) year reservation fee ($1,800*) which is fully applicable to the second (pre-k) year’s tuition. The waiting list fee for a filled class is $100*. Enrollment forms will be emailed approximately four months prior to starting so that shot records and doctor's information will be up to date.
