Guidelines:

  • Financial assistance from the Flexible Tuition program is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. We encourage families who anticipate needing support to apply early.
  • Flexible Tuition is need-based, and a variety of factors are used to make a determination of the award.
  • Allowances are made for families with more than one student in the school who demonstrate need with the higher tuition burden.
  • Families can appeal the flexible Tuition decision in writing by including additional information not seen on the FACTS Flexible Tuition form.

Mount Madonna School’s open admission and flexible tuition policies do not discriminate based on race, gender, sexual preference, ethnic origin, disability, marital status, religion, creed or similar factors. This policy applies to all areas of student concerns: admissions, athletics, educational policies, flexible tuition, and other school administered programs. Mount Madonna School is committed to maintaining economic diversity within our community of families. We allocate flexible tuition funds from our Operating Budget, the Bernice Arnold Scholarship Endowment and special donations designated for reduced tuition. Flexible tuition is based on each family’s economic need, which is assessed independently through FACTS.
