FEES AND TUITION

Tuition

Notre Dame School sets tuition at a level intended to keep education accessible and affordable for families, though it does not fully cover the school’s total operating expenses. Tuition for a practicing Catholic child who has been baptized, in Transitional Kindergarten through 8th grade, is $7,302 per year. Tuition for non-Catholic students or non-practicing Catholics is $8,267, with discounts available for additional siblings. Tuition assistance is offered to eligible families. We rely on fundraising and donations to bridge the gap between what families pay and the true cost of educating each student at NDS.
