Welcome, thank you for visiting our site. We hope to be given the privilege to work with your child. We truly believe this is the best preschool program available and are confident your child will have a very positive experience.
Angie’s Kinder Academy Mission:
- To provide each child with a safe and secure learning environment.
- To provide an educational plan designed to suit the unique needs of each child.
- To help each child build self-esteem and self-confidence through positive reinforcement and love.
Enrollment and Supply Fee:
Angie’s Kinder Academy charges a yearly non-refundable enrollment and supply fee for each program. This fee is due upon enrollment and is non-refundable. The fee holds your child’s place in the class, covers the cost of enrollment and covers basic supplies for each student.
Tuition:
Tuition is charged monthly from September 1st through May 1st.
Tuition rates are based on the number of class days per year and divided into 9 equal payments.
Tuition options:
Tuition will be automatically deducted from the checking/credit card on file on the 1st of each month, unless you have made other arrangements.
- You may pay cash prior to the 1st of each month.
- You may pay tuition through your Brightwheel account prior to the 1st of each month. Invoices pull from any credit before deducting from auto pay.
- You may prepay your child’s yearly tuition with cash, check, money order or credit card prior to September 1st. If you prepay any tuition, field trips, parent date nights, late fees, etc. will come out of this credit. Make sure to pay these as invoices come to avoid a lump sum charge at the end of the year.
A $20 fee will be charged for return payments and payments made after the 1st. An additional $20 fee will be charged every 15 days late. Continual missed payments may affect your child’s ability to attend class.

- Parent Volunteer Discount $10 per hour – Prep / $20 per hour – Substitute Teacher
- Sibling Discount 10% off monthly tuition (per student)
- Referral Discount (yearly)
$20 off May tuition per documented referral

30-day Withdrawal Notice:
A 30-day written notice of withdrawal is required. If you need to withdraw your child, you will request, fill out and return the withdrawal form. You will be billed for 30 days of tuition from the date the form is received. Your child is welcome to attend over the 30 days.
Photos:
Angie’s Kinder Academy uses photos taken in class and at school events for end of year class videos and other purposes. Please be aware that your student may be in these photos, and you are giving Angie’s Kinder Academy permission to use photos.
Drop-off:
The front lobby will remain open during the day; however, the only way to enter the classroom will be through the locked access door. You will check your child in and wait for your child’s teacher to open the access door when it is time for their class to begin. To help with parking and scheduling, please arrive on time to drop off your child.
Pick-up:
You will check out your child when you arrive. When class ends, children will be released through the access door to an authorized pick-up person that shows the printed, watermarked pick up paper. To help with parking and scheduling, please arrive on time to pick up your child. We understand that there are instances that will prevent you from being on time to pick up your child and have implemented a 5-minute grace period. If your child is picked up more than 5 minutes late, your account will be charged a late pick-up fee of $5 plus $1 per additional minute.
Illness:
Please do not bring your child to school if they are ill (this includes runny noses and coughs). We work extremely hard to maintain a safe, healthy, clean, and sanitized environment for all children, and it is very difficult to do so if we have sick children attending. If your child is dropped off ill, you will be called to come and immediately pick them up.
Accidents & Injury:
As a natural part of childhood play, there is a risk of bumps, bruises, trips and falls. While we make every effort to provide a safe environment for your child, accidents do sometimes occur. We will notify you of any accident or injury that we become aware of during class and call you immediately if we feel it is serious. Angie’s Kinder Academy and it’s affiliates cannot and will not be held responsible for injuries substantiated as a result of participating in any aspect of our program.
You give Angie’s Kinder Academy permission to seek medical care and transportation for your child in case of emergency.
Attendance:
Parents are strongly encouraged to take a proactive role in ensuring their children attend school, as concepts are built upon each day. Please notify the school of any absences through Brightwheel. If a child is absent, funds are not refunded for any missing days. We do not offer the option to switch days when your child is absent as we are at maximum capacity and would not be able to accommodate this.
Behavior:
It is our policy to promote a safe and orderly school environment for all students and employees. Accordingly, Angie’s Kinder Academy holds all students, employees, and other adults to the highest standards of behavior on school grounds and during school sponsored activities.
Communication:
Teachers will communicate with parents in person or though the Brightwheel app. To ensure teachers can keep their complete focus on their students, teachers will not reply to message during class. Teachers will reply to Brightwheel messages by the end of the following school day. Please call 801-985-2000 if you need to speak to someone urgently.
Potty:
Potty accidents are common for young children. Even if they have been potty trained for years, it is a good idea to be prepared.
Angie’s Kinder Academy staff do not change diapers or go into the bathroom with children.
If your child has a potty accident at school, they will need to be able to change themselves into clean clothes or the teacher can call you or a designated contact to come and change them.
Please keep a change of clothes in a baggie in your child’s backpack that they may change into if needed.
Inclement Weather:
If both Weber and Davis school districts cancel school or implement a late start, we will do the same. If one district does one of these things and the other does not, we will notify you of our decision by 7 am the morning of the inclement weather. We always support your decision to keep your child home, if you feel it is not safe to go out in a storm.
