Questions parents ask
How many private schools are there near Sun Valley?
We count 5 within 12 miles of downtown Sun Valley. Together they enrolled about 1,380 students in the last federal survey (2023-24). The largest is Sun Valley Community School-Middle with 397 students.
Which Sun Valley private schools take PCTC?
Idaho does not approve schools for this credit, because the money goes to parents. Any nonpublic school’s tuition can count.
Will PCTC cover the whole tuition bill?
Sometimes, but do not count on it. PCTC pays up to $5,000 per student, and schools set their own prices. Ask each school for tuition plus fees, then use the calculator on this page to see what is left for you to pay.
