Tuition & Fees
Think you can't afford a quality private education? Check us out!
At Arches Academy, we strive to make exceptional private education affordable to families who value a strong academic education. Arches Academy is a non-profit 501(c)(3) private institution that does not receive government funding, therefore it relies on donations and tuition to finance the school’s operating expenses. Our tuition is lower than other comparable private schools throughout the state and throughout the country.

Variable Tuition
In order to reach as many exceptional students as possible, Arches Academy offers Variable Tuition. This program allows families to apply for reduced tuition that is right for their family's financial situation. Any family may apply for Variable Tuition if they are concerned about affording the full tuition rate at Arches Academy and they think they may qualify for the program. Often, families that receive variable tuition are asked to provide service hours.
See our FAQ page for further details.

"Enrolling in Arches Academy is the best thing we ever did for our kids. The teachers at Arches partner with the students and their parents to make sure that each child's need are individually addressed. We genuinely feel like we are a part of an academic family who truly cares about each other. In a world where most kids are trying to figure out where they belong, there is nothing more important than that."
