STUDENTS RECEIVE TUITION ASSISTANCE

You may be thinking, “we aren’t the right fit for tuition assistance” or “I think I make too much to qualify.” The fact is, your family may be eligible for assistance through our Traditional Tuition Assistance process or Clergy Incentive. Rashi Director of Finance & Operations Julaine McInnis would be pleased to speak with you about affordability options.

It is during the Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 8 years that children develop the foundational academic preparation, critical thinking skills, social-emotional intelligence, intrinsic values, and relationship with Judaism that will determine their success not only in their next schools but as individuals and members of society. Choosing Rashi now means a lifetime of benefits.

Tuition Assistance Options

We are committed to making a Rashi education accessible and affordable to all families seeking a dynamic, child-centered program of academic excellence that integrates rich secular and Jewish studies curricula and nurtures critical minds and compassionate hearts in its students. Cost of living, temple membership, Jewish summer camp, and family expenses during the b’nei mitzvah year are just a few factors considered when calculating your tuition assistance package.  If you have questions about the process, please contact the tuition assistance committee via Julaine McInnis. We will walk you through our philosophy on affordability and share with you how joining the Rashi community is the best investment you can make for your child’s academic future and lifelong connection to Judaism.

Traditional Tuition Assistance

Rashi offers a traditional need-based tuition assistance program through a third-party service. Families awarded Traditional Tuition Assistance may receive up to 50% in additional assistance for After School, transportation, Middle School trip fees, and certain other incidentals. Details will be included in your award.

The application for 2025-2026 is open. Please contact Julaine McInnis with any questions.
