    Enrollment Details and Instructions

    Please read all instructions carefully before registering.

    Class Registration Worksheet. You may print out this worksheet to aid you in planning classes for your child(ren).


    Registration Dates

    Registration for Oversight Committee members will begin June 1 

    Registration for Spectrum teachers and staff will begin Thursday, June 9, at 10:00 a.m.

    Registration for all current Spectrum families will begin Friday, June 10,  at 10:00 a.m.

    Registration for all new families will begin Monday, June 13 at 10:00 a.m.

    Registration will close at 11:59 p.m. on Monday, June 13.

    In order to maintain optimal student-teacher ratios and class sizes, Spectrum assigns class size numbers for each of our classes. Once a class is full, additional students who register for the class will be added to a waitlist. Students may be added to the class in order from the waitlist.


    Membership Registration/Renewal and Registration Fee

    Spectrum charges an annual registration fee (for new and returning families alike) of $45 per family.

    New families must join Spectrum via the website and pay this $45 fee before they are able to register. This fee is non-refundable. New families, please do not pay for anything except for the $45 registration fee until you have received confirmation from our Registrar regarding your classes and tuition.

    Returning families must renew their membership via the website. Returning families are charged the registration fee at the time of registration. Again, this fee is non-refundable. Please do not pay for anything until you have received confirmation from our Registrar regarding your classes and tuition.


    Tuition and Fees for 2022-2023

    Each class is priced at a per-unit fee of $130 per unit.

        Therefore, class cost = units per class (listed on the class schedule) x $130.

    For example, for General Science, which is a 2-unit class, the cost for the class would be 2 units x $130 = $260 total for the class.

    Study hall = $60 each

    Lunch = $60 each

    Once you have registered for classes, our Registrar will contact you to confirm your class schedule and fees. Please do not pay for anything (except $45 registration fee for new members) until you hear from our Registrar. The first payment of 20% of your total cost (tuition and fees)  plus class materials fees is due Friday, June 17, 2022. If payment is not received by June 25, 2022, your student(s) will be dropped from classes.

    As a courtesy to its families, Spectrum offers a tuition payment plan. Payment is collected via Zelle, available on any mobile banking platform. Unless a family pays the complete tuition up front, tuition payments will be accepted via Zelle to the address [email protected] and are due on 6/17/22,  9/1/22, 11/1/22, 1/2/23, and 3/1/23.


    Commitment Upon Registration

    Payment plans are offered as a courtesy. Full payment must still be made even if you decide to drop a class. Spectrum plans its budget and hires teachers based on enrollment. Also, due to class sizes, dropped registrations may cause another student to miss the opportunity to sign up for a class that was full or have a class dropped that no longer has enough students. Please consider your choices carefully before registering. If you register for a class by mistake, you have 48 hours to notify the registrar to make the change.

    • You will pay the $45 annual family registration fee online at that time. This charge is non-refundable.

    If you are a returning Spectrum family, please renew your membership by clicking on the membership renewal banner at the top of our website once you have logged in.

Then scroll down to the blue boxes where your children's names appear. At the bottom of each child's box, there is choice that says "Grade Level for Upcoming Year."

    5. You will have an opportunity to confirm your selections before you complete your registration.

    Please remember to register your child for all needed lunches and study halls. There is a class limit on study halls, and they do fill up.

    Again, you will not pay anything until you have received confirmation from our Registrar regarding your classes and tuition.


    Payment via Zelle

    Once your class schedule and payment plan have been approved by our registrar, but not before that, payments will be made via Zelle on the online banking platform of your choice. Zelle does not charge us any fees (as PayPal and Venmo do), and it is super easy to use through your online banking website. You need not download and install a new app. Just look for the Zelle sign where you do online banking and make payment to  [email protected]But remember, please do not make any payments until our registrar has approved your schedule and payment plan.
