Affording International School of Portland

What Can ISP Do For Your Child?

Affording ISP

ISP works to keep the cost of tuition down as much as possible. Tuition covers less than 90% of the cost of educating our students, with the remainder being made up from other sources of income, such as fundraising. For many of our families, the cost of education requires careful budgeting.

If you believe that your resources are not sufficient to meet the total costs of an education from International School of Portland, you are encouraged to apply. Tuition support plays no role in our offers for admission to the school.

Tuition Support is available to students in all grades. However, every family is still expected to make a contribution toward the cost of tuition.

Tuition & Expenses 2024-25

All expenses possible are included in tuition, such as student books, field trips, consumable school supplies, many festival costumes, two class parties per year, and more. All student expenses for the 5th Grade Capstone Study Abroad Trip are also included. Parents should plan to pay separately for lunches, some durable school supplies that children can use year after year, and optional after school classes.

Education is an investment in your child’s future. International School of Portland will help your child become a true global citizen who loves learning and excels in a diverse and multicultural society.  A vast majority of your tuition dollars are dedicated towards academic programming and to the salaries of our faculty.
