The Lisbon Early Childcare Center approved new tuition rates for the 2023-24 school year. The new rates go into effect Aug. 1.
Most rates are increasing by $5 to $6 per week, superintendent Autumn Pino said. The goal was to keep the tuition increases reasonable but competitive to other daycares offered in the area.
“We worked with Bre Ties to come up with the figures, keeping in mind this is a business,” Pino said.
