Aid

Tuition assistance decisions are made based on financial need and the availability of funds. KJDS partners with FACTS Grant and Aid to ensure accracy in our allocations.

Financial Aid

To ensure that all Jewish families in Knoxville and surrounding areas have access to the KJDS education, those families for whom full tuition would be an undue hardship are invited to inquire into the possibilities of financial aid. KJDS financial aid is distributed based on need. We partner with TADS Financial Aid Assessment to ensure accuracy in our allocations.
