Tuition & Financial Aid

Chesterton Academy of Akron is committed to offering an outstanding high school education at an affordable cost to families.

Tuition for 2026-2027 is $11,000.

This includes all tuition and books for the upcoming year.

Because tuition does not cover the full cost of an education at Chesterton, families are expected to aid in fundraising efforts throughout the school year.

Chesterton Academy is committed to fundraising to help bring down the cost of our tuition. We believe that financial hardship should never be a barrier for students to receive a Catholic education.

Saint Thomas More Junior Classical

Serving Grades 7-8

St. Thomas More Junior Classical is a junior high school which nurtures the minds and the souls of its students through an integrated education. Through the study of art, music, literature, language, history, mathematics, and theology, it forms students to think both rationally and creatively, to defend the Faith, to contribute positively to the society in which they live, and to promote a culture of virtue.  It achieves this in its formation of the whole person in the early years of adolescence by teaching students how to think and the appropriate means and etiquette in interactions with those around them.
