Tuition & Fees
The Open School uses an Indexed Tuition model to support increased accessibility for a limited number of K-12 students and families. We recognize that careers are significant in many ways beyond what the financial reward may be. So to encourage those who have chosen careers whose primary reward may not be financial, we have introduced The Open School Indexed Tuition model.
We have funds available to index the tuitions of K-12 families who want their children to attend Open School, so please inquire soon to see what your family’s tuition would be.
Open School uses a third party external provider, TADS, where you can apply for the Indexed Tuition program.
*Please do not apply for Indexed Tuition until after your Admissions Visit*
