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

Questions parents ask
How many private schools are there near Washington?
We count 9 within 12 miles of downtown Washington. Together they enrolled about 1,644 students in the last federal survey (2023-24). The largest is St. Francis Borgia High School with 452 students.
Which Washington 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.
