Tuition & Scholarships
At PC Tots, we are committed to ensuring all children have access to high-quality early education and care, regardless of financial circumstances. We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to thrive in a nurturing and enriching learning environment, and we are honored to support your family in this endeavor.
Tuition
A student’s tuition is billed monthly. Billing payments will occur through Brightwheel and may be made monthly or biweekly per each family’s PC Tots financial agreement. Tuition is adjusted annually and may increase. Tuition is billed monthly so long as your child is enrolled as a student, regardless of attendance. Tuition rates are not reduced for holidays, weather closures, staff professional development days, student illness, or student vacations. Tuition rates are subject to change with a minimum of 90 days’ notice.
DWS Subsidies
PC Tots staff will work with families to apply for available childcare subsidies through Utah’s Department of Workforce Services (DWS). Families that financially qualify for DWS subsidies are required by PC Tots to apply for this childcare assistance.
Families are required to apply for the DWS subsidy if their income is below or at the DWS monthly income limits for childcare subsidies. Children must be U.S. citizens or qualified aliens. Parents do not need to provide information about themselves regarding immigration status, work authorization, or social security numbers.
Single parents must work an average of at least 15 hours per week and make at least minimum wage. For two-parent households, the second parent must work an average of at least 30 hours a week. The amount of potential payments (paid directly to providers) depends upon the age of the child, the copayment assigned to the case, and the type of provider.
PC Tots Brighter Tomorrow Scholarships
PC Tots’ Brighter Tomorrow Scholarships are tuition scholarships allocated to families based on the Summit County Area Median Income (AMI) and a family’s Gross Annual Income.
The funds for these tuition scholarships are raised by PC Tots staff and our community partners through individual donor cultivation, foundation and government grants, corporate sponsorships, and fundraising events. Check out our community sponsors and donors.
The PC Tots Brighter Tomorrow Scholarships are designed to alleviate the financial burden of tuition costs and provide families with the means to access exceptional educational opportunities for their children. We recognize the importance of investing in early childhood education as a foundation for lifelong learning and success.
The chart below identifies the monthly parent payment/scholarship amount.
PC Tots AMI Index
PC Tots calculates the PC Tots AMI table in consultation with the Summit County AMI. PC Tots expands the AMI to incorporate higher tiers that Summit County does not provide. This table intends to identify family AMI ranges and supports families with PC Tots scholarships. Area median income is adjusted annually. To determine where your AMI is, look at your taxes line 9.
