The actual cost to educate a student at Edgewood High School is nearly $17,000 per year. Tuition covers only a portion of this amount—the difference, known as the gap, is filled through the generosity of donors like you.
We invite families with the means to do so to consider making a gift that covers the full cost of an Edgewood education. By doing so, you help us honor our commitment to keeping tuition as affordable as possible while ensuring that students from all backgrounds have access to a dynamic, mission-driven education.
Your support helps us build a stronger, more inclusive community—one where every talented, engaged, and motivated student can thrive, regardless of financial circumstances.

Wisconsin Tax Deduction
State of Wisconsin Department of Revenue allows parents to deduct up to $10,000 per student in grade 9-12 at a Catholic high school, regardless of income. Parents with students in grades in K-8 at a Catholic grade school may deduct up to $4,000. If a student moves from grade 8 to high school in the same tax year, parents may claim both tuition expenses up to $10,000.

EHS Financial Assistance
While Edgewood annually awards over $1.1 million in grants, the amount of financial assistance available is not unlimited. The relative need demonstrated in the online application, as well as the number of applicants each year, affects the number and amount of financial assistance grants awarded.
To ensure a fair and consistent process, Edgewood uses Tuition Aid Data Services (TADS) to assess financial need. TADS collects and audits financial information from each family, providing Edgewood with the necessary data to identify and match need-based assistance. All information submitted through this process is kept confidential. We encourage you to apply as soon as possible to take full advantage of the support available.
PLEASE NOTE - Financial assistance is not automatically renewed each year. An application for assistance must be filed annually.
