Tuition & Financial Aid

Tuition & Financial Aid

Investing In The Future

Financial Aid

What if we can’t afford a Christian education?
We believe that if it is God’s will that your children attend a Christian school, He will make a way. This may sound a bit cliché, but it’s true. It may mean unexpected income, such as a bonus or a raise at work, or it could mean learning to cut back on certain expenses. A scholarship or financial support could be available through your church. For those families who qualify and apply, King’s Academy may provide financial aid. The opportunities for provision are there. We serve a God who can make the impossible, possible. He owns the cattle on a thousand hills (Psalm 50) and he owns the hills, too.

Private schooling is an investment. It’s an investment into your child’s education of course, but also, it’s an investment into your child’s spiritual health. School can never replace the importance of parents’ and caregiver’s influences but we can and do cultivate your child’s spiritual development while educating them. We encourage your child to succeed and work towards enriching his/her understanding of God and the Bible. This is a place where your child(ren) can safely talk about Jesus and pray with teachers and classmates. When making your decision, consider looking beyond a strictly financial point of view and consider how significant it is for your child to have his/her whole person (spiritual, physical, and emotional health) cared for.

We understand that choosing a school is a big decision and a prayerful one. We know “…that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28). Ultimately, our hope and prayer is that God guides your family to make the best decision for your family and that wherever your child goes, he/she will grow in his or her faith and knowledge of Christ.

King’s Academy maintains a financial aid program for families who demonstrate financial need. Need is determined by FACTS based upon each family’s income and monthly expenses.
This program is funded by the school’s general budget, fundraising efforts, and donors. It is not funded by the government.
FACTS Financial Aid Analysis service equips schools to make data-driven, objective decisions in determining needs-based financial aid. FACTS provides a systematic approach to processing applications, gathering supporting documentation from families, and generating recommendations to schools. At every step, FACTS ensures the privacy of a family’s data is maintained.

*If your application is approved you can expect to receive a financial aid award letter two weeks from the date you submit your application.

  • A $100 application fee and $50 for each additional student being considered for enrollment to King's Academy is due with enrollment applications.
  • If a student enrolls at King’s after the school year has begun, tuition charges will be pro-rated. Pro-rated amounts will “round” up to the full months.

Because the hiring of teachers and staff and the ordering of textbooks and other classroom materials are based upon enrollment, withdrawals are subject to the following obligation:

Withdrawals after June 1: One month tuition due
Withdrawals after July 1: Two months tuition due
Withdrawals after August 1: Three months tuition due
Withdrawals after the start of school: 50% remaining tuition due
* If financial aid has been awarded to a family who withdraws, they are only responsible for paying tuition based upon the net balance after the award amount.

* Exceptions will only be made in the event of circumstances beyond a family’s control (sudden loss of income, unanticipated job transfer out of the area, etc.)  A “change of mind” does not constitute a suitable reason for an exception. All petitions for exceptions must be directed, in writing, to the administration and are subject to King’s Academy Board review.

* Student records will not be released and no credit for a student’s work can be earned, unless all financial obligations are met.
