FINANCIAL AID
For the 2021 - 2022 School Year
York Avenue Preschool offers financial aid based on a families need. Financial aid is the difference between what it costs to attend York Avenue Preschool and the family's ability to pay the tuition, as demonstrated in the financial aid application. We request families submit all required forms to TADS to process your request.
Note that the FA application is available on TADS beginning October 15, 2020.
The following are the steps to start the financial aid process:
- Go to www.mytads.com or click on the button below
- Create an account with your email address and a password to begin.
- Once you begin your application, you can log out of the portal at any time and return later to finish it. Once all sections are complete, follow the prompts to the payment screen. The processing fee of $45 is nonrefundable.
- Submit your application.
The deadline for submitting your financial aid application (PFS) is December 1, 2020 for the 2021-2022 school year.

NANCY BALDARO
Welcome to York Avenue Preschool! As Admissions Director, I look forward to meeting you at one of our informative school tours. From the warm welcome you get as you enter our beautiful facility, you will realize York Avenue Preschool is a very special place for young children.
You will see happy, engaged children in bright and colorful classrooms. Each classroom is child centered and provides a stimulating environment for learning. York Avenue students enjoy the use of our outside playground, state of the art gym, lending library and art studio. We provide many specialty classes that enhance curriculum and allow our children hands on experiences.
I am excited to share our school with you and get to know your family through the admissions process!
Warm regards,
Nancy Baldaro, Admissions Director
