Renaissance Homeschool Group

23/24 Tuition and Fees

Financial Overview

School of Choice Funding

School of Choice (SOC) funding* can cover tuition for any one of our Renaissance Academy (RA) programs: Renaissance Homeschool Group (RHG), Renaissance Hybrid Academy (RHA), or Renaissance Players (RP).

  • Due to optional SOC funding, many RA families have a $0 or low self-pay balance each year.
  • SOC funding is available to most SE Michigan residents, regardless of income. 

100% Self-Pay Families

Families that would prefer to be with RA on a 100% self-pay basis (rather than enroll for SOC funding) are welcome to do so.

School of Choice Funding + Self-Pay

Too many great RA classes to limit your student? We hear you! Many families feel the same and opt to self-pay for additional RA classes beyond those that funding can cover. Additional classes are offered at a discounted rate. Scroll down for details! 

Fees Beyond Tuition

We do all we can to keep required and optional fees as low as possible. Details are listed below in the 23/24 Fees section below.

*Converting from School of Choice Funded to Self-Pay

All families are entirely responsible for the funding of their student's enrollment with Renaissance Academy. In the rare case where a family drops School of Choice enrollment or does not fulfill funding requirements for the full school year, students are converted to 100% self-pay with RA, with the family responsible for the tuition that would have been SOC funded.
