Tuition and Affordability

Investing in your child's future.

As you will learn from the admission process, Good Shepherd families have found great value in our unique approach to education in a supportive and encouraging environment while preparing our students to become the leaders of tomorrow.

As a school, we seek to admit talented, motivated, and socially responsible students, regardless of family resources or socio-cultural and religious backgrounds. Thus, we do offer flexible tuition and financial aid options. Learn more about financial aid below.
