Chrysalis Academy celebrates and welcomes all LBGTQ+, nonbinary, and gender-expansive identifying students, as well as siblings, allies, and advocates.
Recognizing that a family's needs sometimes arise mid-year, we are committed to rolling admissions that ensure timely support of students who need a change in school placement, as well as those who are exploring the traditional admissions cycle.
The Chrysalis team is equipped to welcome both neurotypical and neurodiverse students, including those with diagnoses of ADHD, mild-moderate language-based learning disabilities (dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia), CAPD and other mild-moderate processing disorders, executive functioning challenges, and ASD-1. We are not able to accommodate students with high-level behavioral or emotional disturbances, ASD above Level 1, or those in need of fully therapeutic settings.
Our application process begins by having a personal conversation with us about your family's needs and interest in Chrysalis, as well as your hopes for your student's middle school years. We start with this step to ensure a match between families and Chrysalis' specific mission.
Following that conversation, families will typically submit:
a written application
a teacher recommendation from a current or prior year teacher who knows the student well
transcripts or grade reports from the previous year and any grading periods of the current year
Tuition and fees
As an independent school, Chrysalis does not accept any government funding. Our program is completely supported by tuition, fees, and the philanthropic generosity of our families and donors.
2025-26 Annual Tuition $38,500
One-time enrollment fee $500
A non-refundable enrollment deposit of $2000 is due upon acceptance of an offer of admission and is credited towards tuition.
Tuition will be pro-rated for mid-year enrollments.
We desire to make Chrysalis as accessible as we can; families interested in a payment plan or a sliding scale should inquire about those options. As we launch the school, however, our financial assistance capacity is limited.
