For classes beginning fall 2022, we will begin accepting registration forms and fees from families new to The Field Station at our Registration Day on Saturday, February 5, 2022 from 8-10 am at the Barn. Available class spaces will be allocated in the order of cars waiting in line. Please click the map to see where to go on Registration Day. A non-refundable fee will be required to reserve a spot in the class. The registration fee can be paid by check, money order, or credit card (please fill out the credit card form below and bring it along); no cash please. Classes typically fill up quickly, so we recommend all new families be present for in-person registration if possible. The remaining forms and documentation can be submitted after your child has a confirmed class spot.

Returning Field Station families should complete the registration form (see forms at the bottom of the page) and pay the registration fee by January 21st in order to receive priority. Checks (or CC form) for returning families can be placed in the drop box at the barn or mailed (399 Howe Rd, Porter, IN 46304), but must still be received (not postmarked) by January 21st to be given priority. Returning families who choose to pay with the credit card on file may email the registration form to registration@fieldstationkids.org.
Questions & Contact List
If you have any questions or would like to be added to our contact list for email updates on the enrollment process, whether for this coming year or for future years, please email registration@fieldstationkids.org. Please include your name, phone number, your child's name, birthday, and which class(es) you are interested in.
Tuition
Please see the table below for the tuition and registration fees for each class. Monthly tuition is paid in advance by the 20th of the month, to cover the following month. If you have a confirmed spot in a class, you will need to pay one month of advanced tuition (like a security deposit) by May 20th to keep your class spot. This one month of advanced tuition will be used to cover your last month of class attendance (May 2023).
We believe that all children should have access to great education regardless of their financial means, so we offer need-based scholarships. If you would like assistance, please complete our Scholarship Application, including the supporting documentation, and deliver or mail it to the barn.
