Ways to Decrease the K-5 Tuition

Eagle Creek does not charge families for their 3rd child in grades K to 5.
As long as long as you have three children in Eagle Creek's grades K to 5, your third child will be free.
Keep your family together and rest easy at one place for years to come!

Eagle Creek offers merit awards for children entering grades K to 5.
If your child receives the merit award, you will get 40% off tuition for the first school year at Eagle Creek. After that, your child's tuition will increase a maximum of 5% per school year, so you can rest easy at one place for years to come.
In addition, all K-5 siblings will be billed at the same yearly rate, whether they start the same school year or later, so you may keep your family together through the years.
When you apply, submit an essay explaining what your child has done to earn a merit award. You or your child may write it, and it should be one page. You may also submit photos, videos, or work samples, but this is not required.
In addition, all families who apply for the merit scholarship are required to complete the application for financial aid. Please use the link below.
We will not publicize your child's name or any of the submitted items.

For the 24/25 school year, your child will receive 40% off for the first school year at Eagle Creek. After that, your child's tuition will increase a maximum of 5% per school year, so you can rest easy at one place for years to come.

At any time, Eagle Creek may request updated proof that you continue to meet the requirements. If you do not meet them, your children may lose their discount.

K-5 Financial Aid

Any given school year, 10 to 30% of Eagle Creek's students receive financial assistance. This is not a loan. It is simply a discount for families that qualify.
Eagle Creek bases assistance on your family's income, savings, and expenses. We also consider the number of children in your family.
You may be surprised to learn that you qualify.
Remember, once your family qualifies, Eagle Creek is committed to offering you similar assistance every year after that.

Families may not receive financial aid for preschool children. However, the number of children in the family has a big effect on the amount of assistance for the K-5 children.
