We understand that choosing an independent school education for your child is a major philosophical decision and a significant financial commitment. We want to make the information as easily available as possible and help you to determine if your children's education is worth our tuition and fees.
Here are some important facts:
1. We are NOT a charter school.
Our school is funded solely by tuition, donations and fundraising. You pay tuition for the academic program and fees for the other programs. These amounts (scroll down) are determined on a break-even rate at a projected enrollment.
2. We are NOT a for-profit school, we ARE a NON-PROFIT school.
We are a 501(c) educational non-profit operating under the fiscal sponsorship of The Social Good Fund. This is why all checks need to be made out to The Social Good Fund with The Renaissance Preparatory School's name in the memo. You can pay with a debit card through our web site. Just go to the "Payments" button and click it. All funds in excess of our costs are funneled back into our school specifically into a building fund and a scholarship fund. (But no, you cannot deduct tuition as a donation... Remember a donation is above the ordinary cost of providing something.)
3. We are starting our third year.
We do have several partial scholarships available (or discounts). There is a discount for siblings from the same family (ask about our extended family package), a best friend dual-enrollment discount, a first cohort discount, and one for referring another family. There is a link to additional need-based scholarships. For our current discounts and scholarships check out the Financial Aid page. Contact us for more information!
