Tuition & Services
A Specialized Education Without a One-Size-Fits-All Price
At Anchor Learning Academy, we believe tuition should reflect the education every student receives while giving families the flexibility to add individualized services based on their child's unique needs.
Our students learn in very small groups with individualized attention, flexible instruction, movement opportunities, and support for the academic, executive functioning, and social-emotional needs that can make traditional school settings challenging.
For students who benefit from additional 1:1 intervention or related services, those supports can be added individually—so families pay for the services their child needs rather than for services they don't.
2026–2027 Tuition
Annual Tuition: $20,000
A $2,000 enrollment deposit is required to reserve a student's placement and is applied toward annual tuition.
The remaining $18,000 balance may be paid over 10 months at $1,800 per month.
Tuition may also be paid in full.
What's Included in Tuition
Annual tuition includes Anchor Learning Academy's complete core academic program:
Very small-group instruction
Individualized and differentiated academics
Literacy, writing, mathematics, science, and social studies
Executive-function support embedded throughout the school day
Flexible seating and movement opportunities
Individualized goal setting and progress monitoring
Regular communication and collaboration with families
A supportive learning environment designed for students who learn differently
Our goal is to provide the structure, flexibility, challenge, and support students need to become confident, successful learners.
Intensive Reading Intervention Program
Every student is different. Some students thrive within our small-group academic model, while others benefit from additional intensive, individualized instruction.
Families may choose to add services through Anchor Literacy & Learning. When appropriate, these services can be incorporated into the student's school-day schedule.
Additional services may include:
1:1 or Small Group Structured Literacy/Wilson instruction
Individual reading intervention
Individual academic support
Executive-function coaching
Educational screenings and evaluations
These services are not included in Anchor Learning Academy tuition and are billed separately through Anchor Literacy & Learning.
Anchor Learning Academy students receive preferred pricing for eligible individualized services.
Speech & Occupational Therapy
When students require speech-language therapy, occupational therapy, or other related services, Anchor Learning Academy partners with qualified independent providers to support students during the school day whenever appropriate and feasible.
Speech and occupational therapy services are separate from Anchor Learning Academy tuition and are arranged and billed according to the individual provider's policies.
Public School Placements
(NAPLES)
Anchor Learning Academy is working closely with families and sending school districts to ensure a smooth transition for students currently receiving educational services through New Jersey public school placements.
Our educational program, staff, and individualized approach remain the same. We are committed to working collaboratively with each sending district throughout the transition process and with all applicable New Jersey requirements.
A NAPLES placement is a New Jersey public school student with a disability who is placed by their school district in an accredited, nonsectarian private school because an appropriate public program is not available. The student’s public school district remains responsible for ensuring the provision of a free appropriate public education (FAPE).
For additional information regarding NAPLES placements, please refer to the New Jersey Department of Education guidance: Download Chapter 152 Information
A Program Built Around the Child
We intentionally structure our tuition differently from many specialized schools.
Rather than including the cost of intensive 1:1 or related services in every student's tuition, our model begins with a strong, highly individualized small-school program and allows families to add specialized services based on their child's needs.
For one student, the Anchor Learning Academy program may be exactly what is needed.
Another student may attend Anchor Learning Academy while also receiving 1:1 Structured Literacy five times each week.
Another may benefit from occupational therapy, speech-language therapy, executive-function coaching, or a combination of services.
The school doesn't ask every child to fit the same model. Neither should the tuition.
Summer at Anchor
Summer programming is optional and is not included in annual tuition.
Our summer program provides students with continued academic engagement, opportunities to maintain skills, and the structure and connection many students benefit from during the summer months.
Summer programming is open to both Anchor Learning Academy students and students from the surrounding community.
Anchor Learning Academy students receive preferred summer pricing.
Full-summer and weekly enrollment options are available based on space.
Let's Talk About Your Child
Choosing a school is about much more than tuition.
We encourage families to visit Anchor Learning Academy, meet our team, see our learning environment, and talk with us about what has—and hasn't—worked for their child in the past.
Together, we can determine whether Anchor is the right place for your child to learn, grow, and succeed.
