Admissions Information for 2007-2008
When my son...was in Lainie's
Kindergarten class, I vividly
remember commiserating
with a fellow carpool parent
about the financial sacrifices
of the years to come. This
single mother, whose
daughter is now grown said to
me:
"You know, in twenty years it
won't matter if you spent three
thousand or five thousand or
ten thousand on tuition, but it
will always matter to your son
that he went to school here; it
will matter to him for the rest
of his life."

-Edie Stovall -former NVS parent
Tuition covers only a portion of the actual cost for educating a child at NVS.
We make up the difference with fundraising events, donations to our Annual Fund, and foundation support.
