LUOA: Leading the Way in Affordable Education Options
Private Christian schools are a great option for those seeking a biblically based education — but they can be expensive. At LUOA, we can help your child receive the spiritual mentorship and academic support he or she needs to succeed, all while keeping your total tuition costs down.
To provide a K-12 education that’s more affordable, we offer the following:
- Customizable tuition options – We offer varying tuition rates depending on whether your student attends full time or part time.
- Discounts – Receive a 10% Family Plan discount when you enroll 3 or more students in LUOA! We also offer a 10% discount to military members, first responders, missionaries, and pastors.
- Flexible payment plans – You can make monthly, interest-free payments toward tuition, rather than paying in full up front.
- Low tuition rates – Pay less than $2,800 per year for K-8th grade students — and less than $3,600 per year for 9th-12th grade students.*
- Money-back guarantee – All LUOA families receive a 30-day, risk-free trial of our program. If you choose to withdraw your student before the first 30 days of classes are up, we will issue a full tuition refund.
*Please note: These rates are for full-time students. Exact pricing is dependent on course load.
