What Missouri pays, and what that leaves you

MO
MOScholars Tax-credit scholarship
A scholarship set each year by the State Treasurer We could not verify the 2026-27 per-student figure and will not guess it.

Figures read from each program’s official pages, 2026-09-20. Sources and how to apply

What would you pay?

We could not confirm this year’s MOScholars amount, so type in the figure from your award letter. An award can never be more than the school actually charges. This is arithmetic, not a quote.

Get one email when applications open

Most programs open once a year, and several ran out of money or seats in 2026. Pick your state (you are looking at Kirkwood) and we will email you the day the next window opens, with the official link. That is the only email you get.

One email per application window. No calls, no sharing your details.

Questions parents ask

How many private schools are there near Kirkwood?

We count 131 within 12 miles of downtown Kirkwood. Together they enrolled about 30,229 students in the last federal survey (2023-24). The largest is Greenways Academy with 3,015 students.

Which Kirkwood private schools take MOScholars?

Missouri keeps no statewide list of participating schools, each school partners with an assistance organization. Ask the school which one it works with.

Will MOScholars cover the whole tuition bill?

Sometimes, but do not count on it. MOScholars pays a scholarship set each year by the State Treasurer, 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.
