Tuition & Fees
At registration, a non-refundable fee of $75 is due, and one half month’s tuition fee is required. That tuition payment will be applied to August’s tuition. This tuition check may be given at registration (postdated for June 1st) or sent to the school by June 1st.
Tuition may be paid by the month, the semester, or the year. Tuition payments are due on the first of each month and are delinquent after the tenth of that month. A $15 late fee will be applied after the tenth. Failure to pay overdue tuition after two months will result in dismissal of your child. We do not accept cash. All payments to the school must be by check or money order. There will be a $20 fee on all returned checks. There is a locked cash box available in the office for tuition payments. Please walk into the office and deposit your tuition in that box.
Nacogdoches Christian Academy plans its expenditures annually based on the summation of annual, individual student tuition. The vast majority of expenditures are one-time or annual commitments (such as curriculum materials or salaries) and cannot be adjusted after the start of the school year. Therefore, by sending a student to Nacogdoches Christian Academy, parents/guardians are committing to pay the full annual tuition, regardless of attendance. Parents/Guardians may petition the School Board for reimbursement due to unique and/or unforeseen circumstances.
Scholarship applications are available in the office to any current or prospective student. A new scholarship application must be submitted for every school year. The current year’s Income Tax Return must be turned in by May 1st before the Scholarship Committee meets.
The tuition tables below show the monthly tuition for 10 months (Aug. – May). All registration fees (due at registration) and half of the first month’s tuition (due on June 1st) are non-refundable.
Families with more than 1 student attending Nacogdoches Christian Academy are eligible for a Multiple Student Discount. In calculating discounts, children’s tuition will be ranked from highest to lowest, with the lesser tuition(s) receiving a 10% discount. Discount will be applied to the tuition only.
