Tuition & Scholarships

Personal Investment

Personal Investment and Available Discounts

Studies have shown that students coming from Catholic schools have higher high school graduation rates and enter college with more scholarships than students from other schools. A Catholic education is worth the investment in your child’s future.

Parents can earn a $500 discount for each student they refer up to $1000/per family referred that enrolls in our K-8 grades and stays for the entire school year. Referral discounts are given the next year of enrollment. There are also multiple child discounts for families with three or more children in K-8.

Tuition

For the 2025-26 school year, tuition for grades K-8 is $6,495. At Notre Dame Academy, we welcome families from all over the metro to our regional school. All K-8 students are charged the same tuition price, regardless of their parish affiliation.

The actual cost to educate a child is $10,000. The difference is made up from generous investments from our supporting parishes and our fundraising efforts. Learn more about our fundraising efforts on our Support NDA page.

Financial Scholarship

We believe that any family who would like a Catholic education for their children should be able to achieve that goal at Notre Dame Academy. Financial scholarships are available for families who apply and qualify for assistance. We use TADS, a third-party administrator, to process our financial scholarship applications and help us fairly allocate our limited scholarship dollars.

Parents may apply for tuition assistance when completing their online registration on the TADS website. TADS has a small processing fee for scholarship applications.

Through TADS, families may also have the opportunity to apply for an Aim Higher/CSAF scholarship by checking a box at the end of the financial aid application to share your application with them.

If families have any questions, they are welcome to contact Liz Flom, our Business Administrator.
