Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year)
- No published breakdown of tuition (colegiaturas) by year group or per term was found for the 2026/27 academic year or for 2025/26 in the school's public materials.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- The school's admissions materials describe an admissions process that includes payment at the cashier, but no publicly posted detailed billing schedule (for example: number of installments, exact due dates, or late-payment penalties) is available in the school's public pages. For billing and payment terms the admissions office handles specific arrangements.

Boarding fees (if applicable)
- The school is presented as a day school in its public materials and the academic/program descriptions; no boarding program or boarding fee schedule is published. (Some third-party listings may include inconsistent metadata; the school's own materials do not describe boarding services or boarding fees.)

Other costs or fees (uniforms, meals, extra-curriculars, materials, extended hours, etc.)
- No fixed public price list for uniforms, textbooks, meals, extracurricular activities, or extended-hours services was found. The school lists available services such as plan de alimentación for Early Years, extracurricular activities, and extended schedules, but it does not publish standard prices for these items.

Brief summary of findings and data gaps
- A review of the school's public materials and reputable school-directory listings shows that Harmony School publishes its academic levels, services, and admissions steps but does not publish tuition amounts, application/registration fees, boarding fees, detailed billing schedules, or standardized costs for uniforms and extras for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic years. For precise numeric fee amounts, billing schedules, refund rules and the list of accepted payment methods, the admissions office is the source for current, detailed figures and payment policies.
