To use the Joy School curriculum in your existing preschool, you pay the same rates for dues as do start-up Joy Schools but your Start-Up Fee is much less.  Rather than paying $100-150 for your Start-Up Kit, you simply pay a $30 Start-up Fee (or $75 if you are not already a Valuesparenting.com member and thus need to pay your lifetime membership along with your $30 start-up fee).  This Start-Up Fee provides you with marketing materials and instructions for integrating the Joy School themes and components into your existing program.  In addition, each teacher at your preschool must become a member of Valuesparenting.com by paying $40 for the discounted lifetime membership to our parent website (only members have the legal right to use Joy School curriculum or the Joy School name).

After your Start-Up Fee, you'll need to pay an annual Franchise Fee for your program of $145 your first year and $120 each year thereafter.  You'll also pay approximately $50/student/year for Dues (this can be paid by parents as part of the registration fee or enrollment fee you charge them).  The amount you pay for each child decreases based on the number of children in your program.  Click on the link below for full pricing information.

Finally, we encourage you to urge parents to purchase the music CDs that go with the curriculum for use at home and in the car and we ask that you make parents aware of the opportunity to purchase a one-time lifetime membership to Valuesparenting.com so that they can support their child's Joy School learning and participate in other meaningful family programs available through this website.  We offer you a $5 commission on each Valuesparenting.com membership that you sell to families in your program and provide you with membership forms to pass out to families as they enroll in your program and a $2 commission on each set of CDs that you sell.

Current Price List (Remember - you'd pay $30-75 for your start-up fee rather than the $100-150 listed here for a brand new program.  The dues, CD and membership information here is correct for both start-up Joy Schools and existing Joy Schools who wish to use the curriculum.)
