Annual Tuition & Fees
The East Bay Waldorf School welcomes students of any color, race, gender, or sexual orientation, and all ethnic, national, cultural, social or religious backgrounds.
Tuition
Tuition and fees cover all costs except some class trips, food, after school care, extracurricular progams, music lessons, and minor incidental costs. Tuition is assessed on an annual basis. Tuition and Enrollment Schedules for the Lower School (K-8) are included in information packets, listing tuition amounts for the coming year once they have been announced, along with sibling discounts and other enrollment information.
Financial assistance is available in the form of grants in grades K-8 based on demonstrated need. Financial aid is not available for the Parent / Child Program or Nursery, although sibling discounts apply to both. Financial aid application forms are now available from the office. See Financial Aid page for information and important deadlines.
