Accessible To All Tuition Adjustment Program

Swallowtail School is committed to offering Waldorf education that is accessible to all students who have been accepted for admission. Families may apply for an Accessible To All (ATA) tuition adjustment by completing an online application through FACTS. Once the online application is complete a meeting between the family and the school's ATA conversationalists will be scheduled. This meeting provides an opportunity to discuss the school's needs and the family's ability to contribute tuition towards these needs. For more information please contact our administration team.
