COSTS FOR PARENTS

Secondary education in the Kingdom of the Netherlands, of which Statia is a part, is free of charge. Parents/guardians do not have to pay school fees and the books and education materials are provided for by the school, including the professional and protective wear of the CVQ students. Also, when the school organizes extracurricular activities and school excursions (including trips abroad), the school will fund the
activities.

For certain school materials and equipment, the school requires the  parents/guardians pay for themselves:
• Need to have lesson materials such as an agenda, a pencil case with pens and pencils, and a scientific calculator

• School uniforms: the GvP School uniform consists of a Dark Blue/Navy Blue Dickies pants (or the allowed alternative uniform pants), a GvP School polo shirt with emblem, and an orange t-shirt with emblem for Physical Education.

o The price for the GvP School polo shirt is $25 and;
o The price for the Physical Education t-shirt is $ 20.

STUDENT LAPTOPS

The increased use of digital programs and tools in our lessons, require that all students have access to a laptop in the classroom. The GvP School’s aim for 2024-2025 is to ensure each classroom has a student laptop for each student to use. Student laptops are not to leave the classrooms. Students in need of a laptop for use at home, can request to borrow a school-laptop.
