Tuition
Tuition at JAIS is assessed at two rates: a “Sponsored Rate” for families whose employer/s pay or reimburse tuition costs, and a
“Non-Sponsored Rate” for families whose employers do not support any tuition (or percentage) of education-related costs.
Tuition fees include all supplies except lunches and school shirts. The hours for Preschool through 9th Grade are 7:45-15:00
Monday-Thursday, with school dismissing at 12:45 on Friday.
Capital Fund Fee
Capital fund fees are used for the improvement and development of the school, including technology upgrades, as well as building, security, and classroom improvements.
Financial Aid
Financial aid may be available – applications must be submitted and aid is awarded based on need in the order that applications are received. Families who receive tuition support from other organizations are generally not eligible for financial aid. However, JAIS will make every effort to ensure that families do not face hardship due to education costs, and is willing to consider exceptions on a case-by-case basis. Please contact us for more information about our financial aid program.
