Re-Enrollment Contracts Available
February 7, 2022

Dear DWS parents,

Re-Enrollment Contracts for the 2022-2023 school year are now available to view and sign in the new DWS Blackbaud Online Portal. Before you can access your Contract(s), you will need to activate a Blackbaud account.

A previous email shared on Friday, February 4th detailed the steps required to activate your Blackbaud account. Please click HERE to read that email and access the instructions.
Required Steps for Re-Enrollment

1. ACTIVATE your Blackbaud account so you can access the new DWS Online portal. Click HERE for instructions on activating your account.

2. LOG INTO the DWS Online Portal to review and sign Re-Enrollment Contract(s) for the 2022-2023 school year. Non-refundable enrollment fee due at time of signing.

Step-by-step instructions for signing your contract(s) and paying enrollment fees are included below.

3. BEFORE Wednesday Feb 16: Submit your signed re-enrollment contracts at a reduced enrollment fee and secure your child(ren)'s class spot(s).
IMPACTED CLASSES
Many of our classes are impacted this year, meaning they are at capacity and/or we expect to receive more applications than available spots.

Impacted classes are as follows:
  • Preschool (All Programs)
  • Kindergarten
  • Rising 1st Grade (Class of 2030)
  • Rising 2nd Grade (Class of 2029)
  • Rising 4th Grade (Class of 2027)
  • Rising 5th Grade (Class of 2026)
  • Rising 7th Grade (Class of 2024)

Enrollment spots are considered reserved for currently enrolled students until February 16th. After that date, we will not be holding spots without a signed contract. Enrollment will open to siblings of enrolled students and newly accepted families starting on February 17th. Applications for 2022-23 are currently being accepted.
WITHDRAWING
If your family's plans change after signing the Re-Enrollment Contract, you have until June 30th, 2022 to inform the office by written notice of your withdrawal for the coming school year. Tuition payments for the 2022-2023 school year will begin in July. If the office receives notice of withdrawal after June 30th, 6 weeks of tuition will be required (tuition weeks are weeks school is in session).

If you encounter any issues, please reach out to Eden Tomich at dwsassistant@daviswaldorf.org.
Accessing Re-Enrollment Contracts: Instructions for Current Parents
Step 1
You will receive an email from Davis Waldorf School announcing that contracts are available to view and sign in the online portal. 
Step 2
If you have not previously activated a Blackbaud account, you will need to do this now. Please refer to these instructions for setting up your account.
Step 3
Enter your email/username on the DWS Portal Sign In Page.
Then press next. 

LINK TO DWS PORTAL SIGN IN PAGE:
Step 4
You will be redirected to a Blackbaud Account Sign in page.
Please re-enter your email and password and then click Sign In.
Step 5
After logging in to your Blackbaud account, you will be taken to the DWS portal. A yellow bar at the top of your screen will say “You have: 1 Contract to Review”.

For families with multiple students eligible for re-enrollment, the number of contracts will be different (i.e. 2 or 3 Contracts to Review).
Step 6
Click on “1 Contract to Review” and you will be taken to the Files & Forms section of the portal.
Step 7
The Files & Forms section of the portal can also be accessed by clicking your name in the top right corner and selecting Files & Forms from the drop down menu.
Step 8
Your contract(s) will be listed in a box labeled with: [Student’s name] files & forms. Click Review to begin reading the contract.
Step 9
A page will appear asking if you have an existing Tuition Management account with Davis Waldorf School. 

As a current family, the answer is YES. This is your SMART Tuition Management account, where tuition payments for this year (2021-2022) have been handled.

If you do not remember your login information, please check with the other parent(s)/guardian(s) in your household. If you are not able to locate your SMART login information, please email Eden Tomich at dwsassistant@daviswaldorf.org BEFORE proceeding with the contract.
Step 10
Upon selecting YES, boxes to enter your SMART Tuition Management account information will appear.

Enter your username and password for your SMART Tuition Management Account. 

Then click Continue to Contract.
Step 11
Upon clicking Continue to Contract, you will be taken to the first page of your online contract. Each student has their own individual contract, so families with multiple children will have multiple contracts to review and sign.

After reviewing the DWS Terms & Conditions, enter your initials in the provided space and press next.
Step 12
The second page of the contract will list your expenses:

  • Annual Tuition
  • Enrollment Fee (per family). For families with multiple students, only the oldest sibling’s contract will include an enrollment fee.
  • Class Fund Fee

You can also choose to add optional fees like the yearbook at this time.
Step 13
Next, select your payment plan and method from the options provided. By previously linking your SMART Tuition Management account, you will be able to select the same method of payment you currently use.
Step 14
Review the Tuition Management Terms & Conditions and input your digital signature at the bottom of the page.

Click To Review.
Step 15
The third page will include all the information from the previous two pages. After reviewing, press Accept at the bottom of the page to proceed to the next section.
Step 16
The fourth page is where you will pay your non-refundable enrollment fee. You can use the payment info currently in SMART or enter a different method on this page. 

Our school does NOT ask for a tuition deposit and that line item should be listed as $0.00. 

On additional sibling contracts, this section will not appear.
Step 17
After pressing Pay & Submit, you will be taken to a confirmation page.
