Affording B’nai Shalom
While tuition makes it possible for us to offer the innovative, inspiring, and nurturing program that our families cherish, we recognize that tuition represents a significant commitment. Our goal at B’nai Shalom is to make exceptional education available to as many students and families as possible, therefore we offer customized tuition to meet your families needs.
Only families that are currently enrolled at B’nai Shalom may apply for tuition assistance.
Tuition Assistance Options
B’nai Within Reach
This program supports families with students in Kindergarten through 8th grade who do not qualify for traditional need-based aid but still require assistance. It features a simplified, shorter application process.
Traditional Tuition Assistance
Families who need additional support beyond what B’nai Within Reach provides may apply for traditional tuition assistance. This program is based on demonstrated financial need and requires a full application.
Gesher Grant
The Gesher Grant ("gesher" means "bridge" in Hebrew) is available to students entering Kindergarten through 2nd grade. It is designed to help bridge the financial transition from Preschool to Lower School and can be combined with other tuition assistance programs. This grant was made possible through the generosity of donors during our 50th Anniversary Campaign.
Opportunity Scholarship
Offered by the North Carolina State Education Assistance Authority (NCSEAA), the Opportunity Scholarship helps qualifying families cover the cost of private school tuition. All families applying for B’nai Within Reach or Traditional Tuition Assistance are required to apply for the Opportunity Scholarship as part of their financial aid process.
Infant Room students are not eligible for Tuition Assistance.
