Affording Baobab Tree Children's House
Baobab Tree Children's House is committed to equity and inclusion. We offer a need-based flexible tuition program because we believe educational opportunities should be available to all families in our community regardless of financial means. To ensure socio-economic diversity at Baobab Tree, we will reserve spots for children of all income levels. We want to work with your family to make our school accessible.
Full Tuition Rate: $16,000 per child per year.
We will partner with Illinois Action For Children to help with the cost of tuition.
The child who has felt a strong love for his surroundings and for all living creatures, who has discovered joy and enthusiasm in work, gives us reason to hope that humanity can develop in a new direction.
- Dr. Maria Montessori
