Do you know a family who is interested in joining the CBA community? CBA currently has a few spaces available in this year’s (2023-24) 4yo program and is offering a $200 tuition credit to current families who refer a new family that enrolls their 4yo for this (2023-24) school year. If you know someone who is interested and has a child who was 4yo on 9/1/2023, please refer them to the admissions page on the CBA website. Once they complete a CBA Inquiry form (where they can let us know you sent them!), they will receive more information and an invitation to join an upcoming school tour!
