TUITION & AID
What tuition covers and how we support families.
Over the course of a child’s education, thousands of ordinary moments quietly shape who they become. Where and with whom those years are spent matters deeply.
Seattle Classical Christian School is a different kind of school. We cultivate well-trained minds, virtuous hearts, and courageous faith in God.
We believe education is not a product but a relationship. It is a partnership of trust between families and teachers, shaped by a shared vision for who students are becoming. As you consider your child’s education, the most important questions are not only what they will learn, but who will help form them and in what kind of community they will grow.
Our tuition reflects the true cost of providing a rich, Christ-centered classical education in Seattle, including small class sizes, dedicated and highly qualified teachers, and a full program of formation in academics, character, and faith.
Nearly half of our students receive some form of need-based financial aid, and SCCS provided more than $880,000 in support to families in the 2025–26 school year. We encourage families to connect with us to learn more about how we help families say “yes” to life-changing education.
Our tuition model is designed to bring clarity, simplicity, and predictability to the cost of your child’s education.
At SCCS, tuition includes core educational costs such as textbooks, art fees, field trips, technology, and required school supplies, plus one yearbook per family. Our tiered approach reflects each student’s academic stage (Grammar, Logic, and Rhetoric), ensuring that resources and support are appropriately aligned as students grow.

INCLUSIVE TUITION: WHAT IT MEANS
We know that private education represents a meaningful financial commitment, and that it can be challenging to understand total cost when expenses are spread across multiple categories. Our inclusive tuition model clearly sets the cost of your child’s education for the year. This means that many costs that might otherwise vary are included and become fixed and predictable for families. You are able to commit to one price and, if you choose the monthly payment plan, spread that cost evenly over the year.

At SCCS, tuition covers core educational expenses, including textbooks, art fees, field trips, technology, and required school supplies. Tuition also includes one yearbook per family.
-
A handful of items are better suited to remain excluded, given their personal nature. Families will still be responsible for:
purchasing “personal supply items” such as a backpack and water bottle.
uniform items for daily and dress use (don’t forget to take advantage of our uniform exchange each year!)
optional all-school family events (Mariner’s Game, Skate Night)
Upper School Capstone Trips
extracurricular clubs
Note that the enrollment fee is not included as part of the educational cost within tuition. An enrollment fee of $200 per student ($500 maximum per family) will be charged to your FACTs account with enrollment secure the student’s spot.
-
Seattle Classical Christian School tuition and fees payment may be paid monthly over 12 months (from July to June) or in full in July.
