Q: What ages do you accept at Blessed Beginnings of Oro Valley?
A: We accept ages 6 weeks through children who will turn 5 after September 1 of the current school year for our preschool program and children who are 5 years of age by September 1 of the current school year for our kindergarten program. Please contact us to verify space availability for your child’s age.
Q: Is Blessed Beginnings open year-round?
A: Yes! Blessed Beginnings is only closed for federal holidays and the day after Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve. Our kindergarten program follows a school year schedule. If we have enough enrollment for camps over the breaks we will provide a camp, but if we do not have enough enrollment to cover that expense, we do not offer a camp. Summer camp is offered for school age students completing kindergarten through completing 5th grade. Enrollment for this usually opens in February.

A: If you would like to visit our campus for a tour please contact the office. You will be provided an enrollment packet and directions at that time. We will need both completed forms, a copy of your child’s up to date immunizations and the $125 per child registration fee to complete your child’s registration.
Q: Once my child is registered for Blessed Beginnings how long will you hold their spot for?
A: Our policy at Blessed Beginnings is that we will hold your child’s spot for up to one month. After a month’s time you will need to re-register your child if there is still space available.
Q: How is tuition calculated at Blessed Beginnings?
A: Tuition for all ages at Blessed Beginnings is an annual tuition that takes into account holidays and off school time.

Since these payments are based on an annual tuition the payments remain the same for each month despite holiday or out of school time closures.
Q: Do I still have to pay my child’s tuition to Blessed Beginnings if they miss school due to illness or vacation?
