Tax receipts
Tax receipts must be requested between January 6 - April 30, and will be issued 4 weeks from the date requested. Please plan ahead as we cannot accommodate rush requests for receipts. Backdated receipts previous to the 2024 tax year may take additional time to produce. Receipts requested beyond April 30th may take 2-3 weeks to produce.
If you have questions about tax receipts, you can contact our accounting team at tax@aspenhillmontessori.ca between
January 1 and April 30th each year. Outside of this time, please write your campus administrator who will contact our accounting team. Please note, teachers and administrators at the Centre cannot provide information on tax receipts.

Government grants and subsidies
The current Federal Affordability Grant program agreement is in effect until Mar. 31 2027. The current grant expires and does not currently have a replacement in plan. We will continue to update families as we receive more information from the government.
Subsidy was discontinued in Alberta as of Mar. 31 2025. If any changes are identified from the Province, we will notify families.
Paying fees
All parent-payable fees, as well as some SIC payments, are made via Rotessa auto-withdrawals. If a Special Interest Class (SIC) is provided by an external vendor, you may be asked to e-transfer to a provided address.
If you do need to drop off a physical payment to the Centre, please ensure that you provide a cheque made out to Aspen Hill Montessori, with your child's student ID and name on the cheque. Ask for it to be given to the Director.
Speaking with teachers or administration
Pre-booking conversations via phone or e-mail is essential as we have many families and want to ensure we can focus on your needs. If you would like to chat with your child's teaching team, please book an appointment in advance through your campus email. Drop-in visits may not be able to be accommodated as our full attention must remain on the children. Thanks for your understanding!
