All students will be charged a $500 non-refundable enrollment deposit via FACTS once your student has been accepted and officially enrolled. This enrollment deposit will be applied to the first payment due for the 2025/2026 school year, and serves as confirmation of a family's intent to enroll, secures the student's place at NAPS, and allows the school to begin the budgeting and hiring processes for the coming academic year.

Immediate Needs, Emergent Opportunities (INEO)

At NAPS, we are committed to providing an exceptional and forward-thinking educational experience that prepares every student for a rapidly changing world. To enhance our school's agility and responsiveness, and to ensure we remain on par with peer AIMS institutions, we have instituted an "Immediate Needs, Emergent Opportunities" (INEO) annual fee.

This mandatory annual fee is designed to provide flexible, unrestricted funding, empowering NAPS to respond swiftly and strategically to unforeseen challenges or to capitalize on fresh educational advancements. While tuition covers the foundational operating expenses of the school, this INEO fee bridges the gap between tuition revenue and the true cost of providing a cutting-edge, comprehensive learning environment. Unlike traditional voluntary fundraising, this predictable and stable revenue stream allows us to plan and execute strategic investments with greater confidence, transforming a potential "wish list" into a planned “innovation budget.”

Funds from the INEO fee will be allocated to areas that directly enhance the student experience and support our dynamic learning environment, including:

  • Program Enhancements: Swiftly adopting innovative tools or programs such as AI learning platforms, robotics kits, or updated digital literacy curricula.

  • Facility & Technology Upgrades: Addressing unforeseen or urgent upgrades and capitalizing on emerging technological advancements, like security door enhancements.

  • Faculty Development: Investing in professional development to ensure our educators remain at the forefront of their fields.

This fee represents a collective investment in the advancement of the NAPS educational journey, helping us to ensure the best possible education for your children.
