Tuition & Fees

For the 2025-2026 School Year

At Lincoln Christian School, we prioritize the quality of education and the overall experience for our students. To support this, salaries for our dedicated teachers and various operational costs are funded primarily through tuition. While tuition is essential for covering these expenses, it only accounts for a portion of our total costs. Despite this, we strive to keep tuition rates reasonable to ensure that an LCS education is accessible to as many families as possible. We encourage parents to carefully consider their financial obligations to LCS before enrolling their children, ensuring that they are prepared to meet these commitments throughout the school year.

Payment Options

We offer flexible payment options to accommodate different family needs:

  1. Full Payment Option:
    • Families choosing to pay the entire tuition amount by August 1st will benefit from a $100 discount per student. This option provides the convenience of settling your financial commitment upfront and enjoying the savings.
  2. Monthly Payment Plan:
    • For families who prefer to spread out their payments, we offer a ten-month payment plan. Payments begin on August 1st and continue through May 1st, allowing for manageable monthly installments.

Facilities Fee (If Applicable)

$1250 or $1500

Tuition at LCS does not cover the cost of buildings, maintenance or any of the costs of Church on the Move including any of its services, programs, or administrative costs. Church on the Move tithers and financial supporters support the substantial expenses of building, maintenance and upkeep of the LCS facilities. Non-COTM families bear their portion through Facilities Fees. A Facilities Fee of $1250 per student will be required from families that do not attend Church on the Move and entered Lincoln Christian School in 2017 or earlier. The fee for families entering in 2018 or after is $1500 per student. This fee is adjusted for 3 day and 2 day programs. The facilities fee is waived for the parents or guardians of an LCS student(s) who consistently attend scheduled worship services at Church on the Move and have contributed at least the tithe (10%) of their income to COTM on a regular basis (i.e. weekly/bi-weekly/monthly). Records are verified twice a year in June and December and indications of no church attendance may affect enrollment status.

Technology Fee$350

Grades 1st-12th
No multiple-child discounts. This contributes to the technology resources your student will benefit from throughout the year.
