Below, is a list of private schools ranked by the lowest tuition. Every family has a budget ceiling, and you might find this list of the most affordable private schools helpful. Tuition is an important factor when choosing private schools, but there are many others, of course. These include academics, programs, school facilities, approaches to curriculum, the quality of teachers, extracurriculars, and technological resources. In addition, financial aid should also be considered as part of your assessment of the overall cost of private education.
OUR KIDS offers a wealth of other resources to help families make the best decision regarding private education. If you're just starting out, we list schools by location and type, so you can quickly find schools that match your broad preferences (e.g. Montessori, faith-based, etc.) or your city. Our advanced search filters for more detailed criteria. To get a big picture of all your considerations, start with our advice guide, which offers rich, detailed articles on private education.
