Tuition and Fees

Eastside Academy is a non-profit, private alternative high school committed to providing at-risk youth with a high quality education. The cost of educating each student is approximately $20,000 per year. We at Eastside Academy realize that a $20,000 per year tuition fee is unattainable for many of our students’ families. In order to help defray much of the costs of tuition, EA fundraises in the community to contribute towards the students’ education. However, each family is required to contribute towards their student’s educational costs according to the following sliding scale, set by the Board of Directors.

Tuition payments are made in 10 monthly installments, due on the fifth of each month from September to June.
