Deutsche Sprachschule Long Island German Language School Long Island Welcome to our School! August The Deutsche Sprachschule Long Island was founded and is organized by parents. The tuition is $32 per student per month for children and $40 for adults, during the tenmonth school year, for a total of $320 for September through June for children and $400 for adults. Special rates apply for early enrollments, full-year payments, and family enrollments. (For details see the attached tuition schedule.) The tuition covers the expenses for insurance, classroom materials, and teachers. Textbooks are separate and usually last for two years. We depend on the willingness of all families to help with teaching, substitute teaching, classroom assistance, organization of the school, parties, and the like. And we encourage you to volunteer according to your interests or as your time budget permits. Beginning in 2011, we are collecting an annual membership fee of $40 per household enrolled in our program, to cover the costs for extracurricular activities during the school year. However, teachers and Board members are exempt from those dues.
