Tuition and Affordability

At SMWS we commit to  an educational experience that includes both ‘windows and mirrors’ for our students. This means creating a community that is as diverse in socioeconomic backgrounds as it is in interests, experiences, and cultures. 

The tuition wizard below will quickly guide you to an estimated cost for your child’s tuition. This information does not reflect tuition assistance adjustments. Please visit our Tuition Assistance tab for more information. 

Choosing a school for your child is a valuable investment in their future. It is also a significant financial commitment. We aim to welcome families into our community at a tuition level consistent with their economic circumstances.
