Tuition & Financial Aid
Introducing Inclusive Tuition
As part of our commitment to continually enhance the educational experience at Arlington Christian School, we are excited to share that enrollment for the 2025-2026 is now open! The $300.00 enrollment fee will be waived for any student who is re-enrolled by March 31, 2025.
The inclusive tuition model implemented during this 2024-2025 school year was very successful. As a result, we will continue to implement the inclusive tuition model that encompasses various fees previously charged separately. As a reminder, this approach means parents will no longer incur additional costs for textbooks, field trips, yearbook, field day, awards programs, end of year activities, and senior dues. High School graduation fees will still be required. We believe this simplifies the financial aspects of your child’s education and contribute to a more transparent fee structure.
​
Discounts for multiple children are available.
$150.00 New Student Application Fee is due at the time of completing the application.
$300.00 Enrollment Fee is due before a student may begin school.
Technology
In the ever-changing landscape of education, the role of technology has grown exponentially, transforming the traditional classroom into a dynamic learning environment. This evolution is not just a trend but a fundamental shift in how we approach teaching and learning. The new inclusive tuition includes the following but is not limited to other technology enhancements.
-
Student Chrome Books
-
Server Upkeep & Maintenance
-
Firewalls & Security
-
Technological Repairs

Textbooks
In today's digital age, the relevance of textbooks is sometimes called into question. However, textbooks continue to hold significant value in the learning process. Cost for textbooks is now included in tuition cost eliminating the separate textbook purchase requirements. Here are a few reasons our textbooks are important and a priority to educating our scholars.
-
Structured Content: Good textbooks provide cohesion and structure that internet-sourced curricula may lack. They offer a clear path for learning and help students understand complex concepts.
-
In-Depth Knowledge: Textbooks often delve into topics more deeply than online resources. They provide comprehensive information that can enhance students’ understanding.
Field Trips
Two paid fields trips per year are included in the tuition to provide valuable educational experiences for your child(ren). If additional field trips are planned and approved, there may be additional fees as necessary.
Yearbooks
Each family will receive one complimentary yearbook as part of their tuition. Additional copies will be available for purchase if desired. These books are a great way to remember each year of enrollment and a keepsake to look back on classes, staff, activities, and sports.
Events & Activities
The cost for student involved, in school, activities are now included in the tuition cost. Activities such as field day and end of year activities, as well as our awards programs.
