At Concordia Classical Academy it costs $6,500 to educate a student. We are fortunate to be a mission of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church. Each student receives the Good Shepherd Scholarship. This provides a significant discount to each student.

There are additional discounts for families with more than one student in first through eighth grade.
