How do I enroll my student in Commandeur's Bay Academy, and how much are the annual tuition fees?
At CBA enrollment and payment of tuition fees are made easy. We at CBA will guide you step by step through the process.
CBA enrollment can take place at any time throughout the calendar year, and only requires a simple application and document process so that our student's records and files are created. Parents and students will meet with the school's director, Robert Gibson, and review the basics of how CBA's blended learning program works, and the valuable educational services and benefits that are offered at Commandeur's Bay Academy. Parents and students are informed of the many types of diagnostic assessments and placement tests the student will be asked to undertake, as well as numerous skill building activities that students will be involved with via traditional and non-traditional classroom vehicles. CBA will need the parent to authorize CBA to be listed as a learning coach where necessary, and have the authority to create online user accounts for many educational sites (including the downloading of necessary software for educational purposes). Parents will then receive all assigned account information, usernames, and passwords for the student. This will allow CBA and parents to monitor all of the student's daily class assignments, grades, schedule, and records. It also allows for CBA to work closely with the private online school's faculty, administration, and technical support staff. A final review of basic school rules and expectations is conducted, and CBA tution is submitted. Welcome to Commandeur's Bay Academy! Your child has now been officially enrolled in CBA's Blended Learning Center, it is as simple as that!
The next step involves the choice and enrollment of the student into an AdvancEd accredited online private school.

CBA recommends that parents explore: International Connections Academy, WiloStar 3D, The Oaks Private School, Forest Trail Academy, Alpha Omega Academy, James Madison High School,or the Whitmore School. Parents can consider other online programs as additional options.

Next, the parent enrolls the student in the school they have selected and pays tuition directly to that school. All schools offer a variety payment options. Exact tuition is listed on each school's website along with all other application procedures and paperwork necessary for enrollment. If there is a tuition discount available, the school and CBA will notify you.
