Please Note:

NOTE: Unsolicited parent feedback over the last decade has been that we need to charge a higher tuition for people to believe the value we are actually providing. For some bizarre reason, people feel more comfortable paying $27,000 or more for private school–even one providing nowhere near the level of caring, learning, support, and guidance provided here. We want to keep a high quality private, college prep education available to the non-elite. Most parents want their children to have better opportunities than they had growing up. That should not remain a dream beyond reach–it should be a reality.

If you would feel better paying $27,000 or more, we will be happy to accept it. However, that extra will end up going to help a child whose family can’t afford our already low tuition.

Continuing students are offered a discounted rate each year during the priority re-enrollment period.

There is no guarantee of space availability once the school year has begun. Space is limited. Class credits for students who start late will be evaluated by the admissions office.

EXTENDED CARE

Instead of charging thousands more for after-care, we take care of your children until you can pick up. Just like some of you, we work all day. Check with the office for details and to discuss your scheduling needs.
*The Supplemental fee covers the basics listed in the table. Optional field trips may require additional fees. This fee is also non-refundable.

Also not included are: AP testing fees, supplies for specialty electives, extra-curriculuar clubs, racing team fees, golf team fees, and tennis team fees. Visit the school office for details.

Budgeting for the year: The Student Council runs fundraisers during the year such as a snack cart, movie nights, and dances. Optional overnight trips and excursions may also require an additional fee paid to a third-party vendor, for example, the Washington, D. C. trip.
