FAQ

We believe every family should be able to access a high quality private education if they think it is best for their child. 
Tuition is based on a family’s ability to pay. 
Tuition is charged on a sliding scale according to each family’s income and financial situation. Financial assistance is awarded by Charleston Classical School  if a student meets the criteria for admittance and family need is demonstrated through the our third party provider BeneFAQ. Recipients of financial assistance must apply each year. 

To be considered for financial assistance, families complete the financial aid application at BeneFAQ.

For Fall 2025, we will serve Kindergarten to Sixth grades.

The purposes are to encourage your student, to help you begin to understand this model of education, and to equip you with skills to help your family flourish.
