Why did Grandeur Prep Academy switch from a charter to a private school?We made the decision to become a private school to gain greater flexibility in curriculum design, teaching methods, and school governance. This allows us to create a learning environment that is fully aligned with our vision of fostering leadership, creativity, and academic excellence, while still maintaining accessibility through fundraising and scholarships.
-
Will tuition be required, and how much will it cost?Yes, as a private school, tuition will be required. However, 85% of our students will receive financial assistance through scholarships, sliding scale tuition, and grants. Our goal is to raise $7 million annually to ensure that no student is turned away due to financial constraints.

How can families apply for financial aid?We will offer need-based financial aid and scholarships for qualifying families. Our financial aid application process will be simple and transparent, with more details provided as we approach enrollment.
