Requested additional charitable tax receipted donation: Suggested minimum $100/family

All tuition fees are fully tax deductible as a charitable contribution.

The DJCS is a non-profit organization.  The school is dependent upon your tuition fees plus charitable tax receipted donations in order to grant subsidized enrollments and fund the required expenses that are necessary each year.

Tuition fees do not cover our full costs.  Therefore, we are requesting that every family include an additional donation ($100/family suggested). We recognize that paying full tuition may pose a hardship for some families; hence we have set the tuition fee below cost level. However, please consider paying for the full cost of your child’s tuition by adding a suggested minimum of $100/child as a donation.


Cancellation Policy Please read carefully
After September 1, 2010 tuition is completely non-refundable. No exceptions will be made to this policy. Cancellation fees are as follows:

Withdrawal date with applications in writing Fee charged
Prior to August 1, 2010 $100 admin. fee per child
Between August 1 and August 30, 2010 50% of tuition fee per child
After September 1, 2010 Full fee per child (No refund)


THE AZRIELI BURSARIES -- Application Deadline May 2, 2010
Thanks to the Azrieli Foundation, the DJCS is able to offer subsidized enrollments to families in need. If you are financially unable to meet the full enrollment fee, you may be considered for a reduced fee, in confidence, by completing a subsidy application form. This form can be obtained from the principal and must be submitted with the Current Information and Fee Forms in order to be considered. Applications will be treated with the utmost confidentiality.
