Carolina Christian School

The school at a glance

Carolina Christian in Locust is worth considering for families who want a Christian school through graduation and a published tuition rate that changes only modestly at high school. Its payment schedule spreads the annual charge across ten installments. First-year application and enrollment charges should be included before comparing it with another school's recurring tuition. The most important affordability detail is the school's own aid restriction: its FACTS grant and Opportunity Scholarship cannot be combined. Families should compare the available alternatives rather than subtract both from the bill. That school policy should not be confused with the rules governing two North Carolina state programs. The financial-aid section also contains a stale application date, so a family should obtain the current deadline and complete incidental-fee list before treating a projected cost as reliable.

Tuition is the starting point.

K–8 rate identical despite different division boundaries on page and PDF.

Grade, family-size, parish, program, and eligibility labels are part of each price. Do not sort or compare an unqualified minimum; family totals and conditional contributions are not individual sticker tuition.
