Admission 

LONDON CHRISTIAN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Family Application Process

London Christian Elementary School accepts requests for enrollment at any time during the year, for all levels, Kindergarten through Grade 8. We seek to have a user friendly enrollment process that allows parents to be well informed about what our schools offers. 

Step 1

Schedule a tour. After receiving your request, the Principal will be in contact with you to arrange a time to meet to discuss the educational needs of your family, and introduce you to staff, students, and our building. This is a great place to have your crucial first questions answered. 

Step 2

Review the information booklet you receive to ensure you fully understand the purpose, mission, and vision of LCES, and understand the Christian education your child will be receiving. 

Step 3

Complete the online family application using the link which will be emailed from our school office. This includes fully sharing with us what we need to know about your child to ensure that they would flourish in our school, if accepted for enrollment. 

Step 4

School leadership will review your application and confirm whether or not the school is able to support your family as requested. If approved, the deposit holds your spot. 

Step 5

When available (typically after May 1st), financial details will be shared with you in a one-page summary form that becomes a contract between you and the school. A completed form with supporting payment details secures final confirmation of enrollment and is required before the child(ren) begin their first day of classes. Due date: The first Monday in June for the following school year, or, if applying within the school year, before first of classes. 

Don't delay

TUITION FEES & FINANCIAL INFORMATION

An expense is something that, over time, decreases in value. An investment, however, increases in value, and Christian education is certainly an investment. It will pay dividends, not only during your lifetime through your children, but through the principles and values that they in turn will teach their children.


Each family's tuition will be unique dependent on age and number of children. There are also family-specific details related to tax receiptable portions of tuition that affect the impact to your family budget. Contact us so we can help you understand how your situation would work.


2024-25 Tuition

Tuition is 11 monthly payments, starting in August 2024.

Grade Monthly Fee Per Family
Full time (1 child) $1,114
Full time (2 or more children) $1,248

*the above rate is based on an 11-month payment schedule and includes a new family discount

The Bursary Fund

The Bursary Fund was established to connect families seeking Christian education for their children at LCES with financial aid. Families who have legitimate financial need are eligible for assistance. The level of support available is dependent on the funds available for that year. Bursary support is considered each year and not guaranteed year-to-year.


Most recently, the average financial assistance granted has ranged from 25-35% of total tuition, and the application process requires proof of financial status.
