Tuition & Financial Aid

Clear tuition and practical help for families

We believe families should be able to understand the cost of Christ-centered education without guesswork. Family of Christ offers transparent tuition for Preschool and K-8, along with guidance on Step Up For Students and other important next steps.

Affordable, private, Christ-centered education in New Tampa

For many families, private Christian school feels out of reach until they understand the actual numbers. Our goal is to make tuition easier to understand, explain how scholarships may help, and give you a clear next step if you want to talk through your family’s situation.

Scholarships and financial help

Families are strongly encouraged to apply for Florida scholarships through Step Up For Students while the program is available. For many families, this can significantly reduce the monthly cost of tuition. Our team can help you understand the process and point you toward the right next step.

Step 1: Apply for Step Up

Florida families are encouraged to apply as early as possible while scholarship funding is available.

Step 2: Review estimated responsibility

Use the tuition tables above as a planning guide, keeping in mind that scholarship amounts are approximations.

If you have affordability questions, our staff can help you better understand tuition, scholarships, and payment expectations.

Payment details families should know

K-8 tuition supports a Christ-centered educational experience that includes accredited instruction, certified teachers, weekly chapel, annual Stanford Achievement testing, and a school environment shaped by both academic growth and spiritual formation. Accreditation, teacher certification, and annual Stanford testing are all part of the school’s academic model.

Monthly payment schedule

K-8 tuition and fees are paid over 12 months. Payments are processed on the 5th of each month.

Discounts and payment method

A 10% sibling discount is available for K-8 after the first child, and discounts are applied to the parent’s responsibility after the scholarship. Family of Christ uses FINACS through Redicker for payment processing.

All School Supplies Included

Your K-8 tuition includes all of your student’s school supplies. No longer will you have to deal with crowded stores and empty shelves again.

Important notes

Registration fees and deposits are non-refundable. Family of Christ also uses continuous enrollment for K-8, meaning students are automatically re-enrolled unless families notify the school before the re-enrollment date.
