SIA Programs:
Flexible Tuition: At the Strelitz International Academy, we appreciate the long-term investment that our parents make in choosing to send their children to our school. For this reason, we have implemented a Flexible Tuition Program for Primary Years Students. Flexible Tuition allows for tuition to meet each individual family’s financial needs.
SIA Sundown Program (Aftercare): SIA Students are eligible to register for SIA’s aftercare program. Care is from dismissal until 6pm on school days.
JCC School Days Out Program: On most days that school is closed, the JCC runs a camp for SIA students.
JCC Summer Camp: Registration through www.campjcc.org
*Flexible Tuition is not available for families applying for Transitional Kindergarten.
