Affording International School of Portland
I can’t say enough about ISP. We have two children in the school and both are thriving.
The teachers are talented in caring, the class sizes are perfect, and administration and parents are involved and committed to continuing to improve each child’s experience…
The educational and cultural foundation is worth every penny. CURRENT ISP PARENT
What Can ISP Do For Your Child?
Affording ISP
ISP works to keep the cost of tuition down as much as possible. Tuition covers less than 90% of the cost of educating our students, with the remainder being made up from other sources of income, such as fundraising. For many of our families, the cost of education requires careful budgeting.
ISP recognizes that not all families have the financial resources to pay for the entire cost of tuition. ISP is proud to offer tuition support to approximately twenty percent of our student body. Tuition Support is based entirely on a family’s ability to pay for tuition – no other criteria is used.
If you believe that your resources are not sufficient to meet the total costs of an education from International School of Portland, you are encouraged to apply. Tuition support plays no role in our offers for admission to the school.
Tuition Support is available to students in all grades. However, every family is still expected to make a contribution toward the cost of tuition.
Tuition & Expenses 2024-25
All expenses possible are included in tuition, such as student books, field trips, consumable school supplies, many festival costumes, two class parties per year, and more. All student expenses for the 5th Grade Capstone Study Abroad Trip are also included. Parents should plan to pay separately for lunches, some durable school supplies that children can use year after year, and optional after school classes.
Education is an investment in your child’s future. International School of Portland will help your child become a true global citizen who loves learning and excels in a diverse and multicultural society. A vast majority of your tuition dollars are dedicated towards academic programming and to the salaries of our faculty.
