Prospective Families:
Frequently Asked Questions:
How much will it cost?
Fees are determined on a sliding scale based on family size and income. The average family on MCUM’s sliding scale pays $63 per week per child, and a discount is available to families with more than one child enrolled.
Eligible families are asked to apply for support through the Child Care Development Fund (CCDF) and On My Way Pre-K – which enable families to enroll their child(ren) at Compass without (or with a very small) fee.
