Tuition, Financial Aid, and Scholarships

There is no investment with a greater return than a child's education. Every SPA family makes an investment in their child’s tuition, and our $4.8 million financial aid program provides a bridge for families who qualify.

At SPA, we work hard to attract and retain the very best students. Our commitment to a pluralistic educational experience means creating a community that is as diverse in socioeconomic backgrounds as it is in interests, experiences, and cultures. As such, our student body reflects the broad diversity of families from the entire east and west metro area and beyond.  Because many factors guide financial aid decisions, we encourage families not to make assumptions about whether they are eligible, but to have a confidential conversation with our Enrollment team. Through financial aid and payment plans, we strive to make SPA affordable for all families whose children have been admitted. In 2024-25, our financial aid budget is $4.8 million, which includes scholarships awarded through SPA's Redleaf Scholarship (Grades 6-9) and Malone Scholarship (Grades 7-9) programs. In total, 27% of our families receive some level of financial aid in 2024-25, which consists entirely of grants that need not be repaid. The chart below shows the percentage of awards given to SPA families at various family income levels. 

Please note: financial aid is not currently available for students entering PreKindergarten.
