Tuition and Financial Assistance

At The Adelson School, we recognize the profound impact that an exceptional education has on your child's future. It is not just about academic success, but also about fostering kindness, empathy, and compassionate leadership.

A Jewish education offers unique benefits—engaging academics, enrichment opportunities, and the chance to lead, learn, and compete. However, we understand that the cost of private education can be a concern for many families.

We are committed to helping make a Jewish education accessible and affordable for all families through generous financial aid programs. Our students graduate as confident individuals who go on to attend top colleges and pursue meaningful careers.

Financial Aid: Making Education Accessible

We understand that affordability is a key consideration. Many families assume they will not qualify for financial aid, either due to income or the perception that they earn too much. The truth is that a wide range of families qualify for assistance, thanks to the support of generous donors and community partners.

The Adelson School’s financial aid process is clear, impartial, and transparent, and is designed to help you understand your eligibility.

Cost and Payment Plans

We offer flexible payment plans. Tuition can be paid in full or in monthly installments. A $1,500 non-refundable deposit ($750 for financial aid applicants) is required with the enrollment contract and is applied toward tuition.

Tuition and Financial Aid: Frequently Asked Questions

Is financial aid available for students in all grades?

Whenever possible, we offer financial aid for qualifying K-12 students to bridge the gap between your contribution and the full tuition amount needed to support your child. Financial aid is not available for preschool students.

How does The Adelson School determine if a family is eligible for financial aid?

Our Financial Aid Committee, which is overseen by our Chief Financial Officer, considers a number of criteria to inform how to allocate the school’s funds, including but not limited to financial need, academic standing, citizenship, and attendance. All information is kept strictly confidential.

Is there a cap on available funds?

The Adelson School is fortunate to have generous donors and community partnerships, whose financial support is deeply respected and valued. Even with such incredible generosity, our resources aren’t unlimited. While we are unable to meet every family’s full financial needs, we strive to accommodate each request as best we can.
