Tuition
Investing in a Christ-Centered Education
Central offers a range of tuition rates for Kindergarten to Grade 12. Maximum tuition rates are set annually by the Board of Trustees and are graduated by school level.
For the 2023-2024 academic year, the monthly amount per student is:
Elementary School: $209 - $642
Middle School: $209 - $734
High School: $209 - $825
As a Christ-centered school, Central's tuition model reflects the school's values:
• Fairness. We want to be fair to families in the distribution of resources. We want to be fair to employees in their compensation that comes from the resources of the school.
• Diversity. No one wants Central to become an elite or an exclusive school that serves only wealthy families. Community members, donors, board members, Corporation members, and school employees deeply value that a CCS education is accessible to a diverse range of families.
• Dignity. All families are valued and treated with respect.
Fair Balance Tuition honors each family's dignity and is based on the principle that a family's financial commitment should be in equitable proportion to its financial resources. Instead of a set tuition scale where "one size fits all", families pay a range of tuition determined by a confidential third-party online service. The rate that individual families pay for tuition matches their unique financial situation.
The same financial information is asked of all parents through a confidential third-party service called FACTS. The FACTS assessment is based on your tax statement from the previous year and your current year's W-2. Many factors are considered when determining the monthly tuition for a family including income, assets, unusual expenses, charitable giving, and the size of the family.
