These are the numbers the school gave the U.S. Department of Education for the 2023-24 school year, published in July 2026. The survey counts students in kindergarten to grade 12, not pre-K. Enrollment and staffing move every year, so ask the school for today’s figures. Where this comes from. Something wrong? Tell us and we will fix it.

Lake Champlain Waldorf School tuition, and what Town tuitioning pays

Lake Champlain Waldorf School publishes its tuition on its own website. See the school’s tuition page (found September 29, 2026). We link it rather than copy the figures, because amounts change each year and differ by grade.

Tuition paid by your district Each independent school sets its own tuition today. Act 169 of 2026 limits yearly increases in publicly funded tuition from fiscal 2028, and a later foundation formula would set tuition by student.

Figures read from each program’s official pages, October 2, 2026. Sources and how to apply

We could not confirm this year’s Town tuitioning amount, so type in the figure from your award letter. An award can never be more than the school actually charges. This is arithmetic, not a quote.

Questions to ask Lake Champlain Waldorf School
