Tuition

Ways to save on tuition

Upper school timing

Grades 7–12 have their own deadlines

Older students join a class that is already moving. These two rules exist so a transfer starts somewhere they can actually succeed.

For grades 7–12, applications arriving after the second week of school mean newly accepted students in grades 9–10 will not be admitted until the start of the second semester.
Generally, we do not allow students to enroll after the second week of a student's junior year.

Not sure how your student’s grade and timing line up? Call the office at (225) 364-3734 and ask before you apply.
