Tuition and Financial Aid
The Value of a CAK Education
For parents, no investment could be as life-changing and impactful as their child’s education. At Christian Academy of Knoxville, we include items in our tuition pricing that are often extras at other schools. We also offer a tuition assistance program.
Tuition Includes
| √ Lunch by SAGE Dining | √ 1:1 iPads for Preschool-8th grade |
| √ Yearbooks | √ Full-Day Preschool Program |
| √ Class t-shirts and most school supplies for preschool - 5th grade | √ Student admission to athletic events for non-playoff home games |
Affording CAK
Think a CAK education is out of reach? There are many ways to afford a high-quality Christian education! Ask our admissions team about CAK's tuition assistance program.
Tuition Assistance
CAK's tuition assistance program is similar to the college financial aid process. Applying for tuition assistance will not affect your admissions or enrollment process, and we encourage our families to apply early because awards are made on a first-come, first-serve basis. Tuition assistance is not available for preschool students. If you have specific questions, reach out to Beth Mozingo at bmozingo@cakmail.org
