How Costs are Covered at WCA


Tuition and fees cover only about 65% of what it actually costs to educate a student here—leaving an unfunded gap of about 35% for every student. Tuition does not cover program enhancements or facility improvements—it just helps keep our school running. This means that every student at WCA actually receives a substantial form of tuition assistance.

We depend upon all parents involvement in fundraising activities to fund the remaining 35%. This difference between tuition and actual cost is made up through our fundraising events and letter appeals to our current families, alumni families, friends, businesses and churches. Your direct participation in responding to these appeals and actively supporting the fundraisers are crucial to this school’s ability to succeed. This is a parent-sponsored school that cannot continue its educational ministry to students without the meaningful, sacrificial support of our parents and donors. We are not eligible for direct government funding of any kind, nor do we desire it for a number of reasons. Our tuition rates are one of the lowest in Canada for Private Christian Education. We work very hard to keep it that way. We know that the education of your children does not cost, it pays because you are investing in your children's future. As a registered charity with the Canada revenue agency we are able to give you tax receipts for a portion of your suggested tuition donation amount.
