Elementary/Middle Schools:

  • $1,300 (base dues) plus $1 per student

Secondary and K-12 Schools:

  • $2,050 (base dues) plus $2 per student

Minimums and Maximums:

  • All schools will pay at least the base dues
  • No school will pay more than one-third of its highest day tuition (one-sixth of boarding tuition), unless this figure is less than the base dues.
