AN INVESTMENT FOR NOW + THE FUTURE

SAFE, Joyful + Succesful LIFE

WHY WOODLAWN

Block 1 – Value of the Woodlawn education … safe and joyful, superior preparation for a successful college acceptance and a fulfilling life.

BLOCK 2

INVESTMENT

As a private non-profit independent school, tuition is Woodlawn’s primary source of income.
Facilities, faculty and supporting services are expensive. Woodlawn takes care to operate efficiently and squeeze every bit of value possible out of every tuition dollar.
 
No investors are being enriched by your tuition so every dollar goes to education.
No state or federal funding is accepted leaving Woodlawn free to set higher standards.

BLOCK 3

RETURN ON INVESTMENT

Your investment in tuition at Woodlawn School returns in multiple ways.

+ Your child is safe, happy and able to reach their full potential.

+ First choice college acceptance is virtually assured and the likelihood of merit based scholarships is greatly increased.

Woodlawn is an investment that will pay off over a lifetime … both yours and your childs.

BLOCK 4 - COMPARISON TO OTHER SCHOOLS

WHERE WE STAND

Woodlawn’s tuition is on par with other top-tier private schools in the region.

Woodlawn is more expensive then some smaller local private schools but the cost is offset by greater value

Woodlawn is more expensive then public and charter schools but you get small class sizes and a safer environment. You get what you pay for.

NEED BASED TUITION

AFFORDABILITY

Socio-economic diversity is an important part of Woodlawn’s curriculum and values. 

We invest over 17% of our annual revenue to support socio-economic diversity and we actively seek philanthropic support to help keep the cost of a Woodlawn education within reach. With the exception of our Pre-K program, Woodlawn offers need-based tuition assistance to help qualified families better afford the cost of tuition.

This means tuitions that range from:

  • Grades K – 8, $9,640 to $19,280
  • Grades 9 – 12, $10,445 to $20,890
  • Our Pre-K tuition is $15,600
 

To determine the level of tuition as assistance, we use a confidential, secure process administered by the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS) through their School and Student Services program. Families identify sources of income and expenses, they are asked to suggest the amount they feel they can afford to contribute to tuition, and to provide any contextual information that might be relevant to the process.

The NAIS School and Students Services program prepares an analysis and recommendation of demonstrated need which is shared confidentially with the Head of School and Director of Admissions. Woodlawn’s policy is to meet demonstrated need or 50% of tuition, whichever is less, within the constraints of the school’s budget. This year, (X%) of students receive grants averaging ($$) per student. 

To learn more about need-based tuition assistance, please contact Kari McCormick, Director of Admissions and Financial Aid: [email protected].
