Tuition and Fees
An investment in your child's earliest years of education is a commitment in support of their future success.
We value the unique contributions every family brings to our community. In keeping with this spirit, tuition assistance is offered to help make enrollment more affordable and accessible.
The most amazing thing about this is that my children were in an environment that has fostered a love of learning. Not only is the learning fun but the teachers allow the kids to be kids and use their own creativity. No matter where they go to middle school I believe that TRS has set the foundation of how teachers should treat students and how people treat people.

Tuition Assistance
The Raleigh School is committed to fostering a warm and inclusive community built on a foundation of respect and equity. As a community, we recognize the important role economic diversity plays in enriching our community and the educational and social-emotional experience of our children. We provide need-based tuition assistance in order to ensure enrollment is within reach to a broad range of families.
The Raleigh School offers tuition assistance to all eligible families. Awards are based on need as assessed by a third-party service, Clarity. Clarity collects basic financial information on income, expenses, assets and liabilities, family size, siblings in tuition-based schools, and any special circumstances. The Raleigh School's Tuition Assistance Committee reviews this confidential information to determine a family's eligibility for assistance. In order to ensure we have sufficient funds for those who qualify, typically 80% of a family's need is met and a per family maximum award for the 2025-2026 school year is $29,300.
Tuition Refund Plan
The Raleigh School offers a Tuition Refund Plan through Dewar, Inc. for families of elementary students.
