Tuition & Fees

Our Approach

Chesterton Academy is committed to offering an outstanding high school education at an affordable cost to families.  We keep tuition as low as possible to bring a classical, Catholic education to any family, regardless of income. 

To make the school more affordable for families, we have set tuition far lower than our full actual cost.

How do we make up that difference? The rest is supplied by generous donors who believe in the mission of the school and want to keep tuition affordable for families.

We expect all of our students who are Florida residents to receive scholarship money through the State of Florida, distributed through the Step Up for Students programWe expect Chesterton students will receive approximately $7,500 per year in scholarship money, which covers approximately 85% of their tuition.
