Affording LCDS
Why Invest in Country Day?
At Lancaster Country Day School, we view the choice of an independent school education as an investment, and we understand that this represents a significant financial commitment for families.
To ensure that the LCDS experience is accessible to every qualified student, we are dedicated to bridging the financial gap for families. This year, approximately 40% of our students benefit from our affordability programs, which include need-based tuition assistance and merit scholarships.
An investment in LCDS is an investment into a learning environment where the spark of curiosity is nurtured daily.
