Discounts

Right At School is pleased to offer families a variety of ways to save on tuition.

Please note that discounts vary by location and may not be combined. Use the form on this page to apply for a discount for which your family qualifies. You will then receive an email with information about how to apply your discount.

Sibling Discounts

Each child you enroll in Right At School programs in addition to the first qualifies for our Sibling Discount. This discount will automatically apply to your rate at checkout when you register two or more children at the same location.

If you have children attending different schools, please reach out to our team to get the sibling discount applied. If you remove all but one child from RAS programs, the discount will be rescinded and debited to your account.

 

Military Discounts

Right At School is proud to provide a discount for Active Duty U.S. military families. To qualify for this discount, the enrolled child’s legal guardian must be able to provide verification in the form of an Activity Duty Military ID. Please upload a digital copy of your ID or LES statement in the Discount Application Form.

Free & Reduced Lunch

As part of our commitment to serving diverse communities and ensuring that every child has access to our programs, we offer discounts based on a child’s free and/or reduced lunch status. Please upload a digital copy of your child’s free and/or reduced lunch approval letter in the Discount Application Form so we can verify your child’s eligibility for this discount. In districts where all students receive Free Lunch, families can verify their eligibility for this discount by providing proof of their SNAP Benefits or TANF Assistance.

Please note that only students who have been approved to received free or reduced price school meals under the National School Lunch Program are eligible for this discount. Your school will issue your child an approval letter — if you do not have this letter, please contact your school administrators.

District Employee Discount

At Right At School, we highly value the dedication and hard work of school district employees who play a crucial role in shaping the educational experiences of our children. In most locations, Right At School provides a discount for children whose legal guardian is employed by their child’s school district. We require proof of district employment to qualify for this discount. Please upload a photo of your school badge/ID so we can verify your eligibility for this discount.

In order to apply the District Employee Discount, registration must be completed in full. Once your registration is finalized, our team will verify your eligibility for the district employee discount and apply it accordingly.
