Tuition Assitance
Our goal is to ensure that every child who wishes to attend our school can do so, regardless of their financial situation. We believe that every family deserves access to an exceptional education, and we are committed to making that a reality for our St. John's Episcopal School families. We offer a wide range of tuition assistance programs to help make our tuition more accessible, including need-based scholarships, payment plans, and tuition discounts. Tuition assistance is available for students entering Kindergarten through 5th grade.
Financial Aid
Up to 50%—Kindergarten-5th Grade
Financial aid applications open every year at the time of enrollment. Funds are available on a first-come-first-served basis. Aid is awarded according to financial need and available funds. The maximum Financial Aid/Discounts/Scholarships allowed is 50% of Tuition. Families desiring Financial Aid should apply after submitting an Enrollment Application. Award letters will be sent after the Enrollment Packet is completed.
St. John's utilizes the services of FACTS Management to determine financial assistance eligibility. FACTS provides the school with a qualification report listing the families eligible for financial aid. The school will notify the family of the amount awarded.
