Help With Fees

Cost shouldn’t be the thing that decides whether your child gets to take part. If fees are in the way, ask us.

How this works

Some of our families are given a hand with tuition by other families, through gifts made to our education fund. There is a limited amount of it, and it exists precisely so that a child who wants to be here isn’t kept out by a number.

You don’t have to prove anything. We don’t ask for pay stubs, tax returns or benefit letters. We ask what your family could manage — and we’d rather you asked and we said “not this term” than have you decide for yourself that the answer is no.

Every request is read privately by the Academy’s owners. We’ll write back within two days, whatever the answer.

Ask us

So we can write back. Nothing else.

There is no wrong answer here, including “nothing at the moment”. It just helps us stretch the fund across as many families as we can.

We don’t ask for proof of anything, and what you tell us stays private.

Would rather talk than type? Call (517) 701-1121 or send us a message — either is just as good, and it reaches the same place.

Want to put someone else’s child in a seat?

The fund only exists because families and local businesses give to it. If you’re in a position to help someone else’s child take part, that’s where it goes.
