WHHS students on the campus grounds

Tuition & Affordability

A WHHS education is an investment in your child, and we work with every family to make it possible. Here is how cost and aid work.

The boutique investment

Cost should never be the reason a child doesn't apply.

WHHS is a small school by design, with low student-teacher ratios, three academic tracks in every course, and a faculty that knows each student by name. We are committed to making that experience accessible, and a significant share of our families receive tuition assistance. The first step is simple: talk to us.

Need-based aid

A meaningful share of WHHS families receive tuition assistance. Awards are based on demonstrated need and reviewed confidentially each year.

Monthly and multi-installment plans help families spread tuition across the year.

Other sources of aid

Students entering WHHS from public school may apply for tuition assistance from other organizations such as Oorah or UJA. Speak with our admissions director for details.

How to apply for assistance

WHHS offers need-based tuition assistance through a WHHS Tuition Assistance Application together with a FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment and supplementary documents. The process is confidential and reviewed on a rolling basis, with a priority deadline of January 5.
