Tuition Support Options
We want cost to be the last reason a family misses out on quality early childhood education. Here are the main ways families can get help with tuition at The Day School of Astoria:
NYC Publicly Funded Seats
Pre-K for All & 3-K for All
Eligible families can enroll in New York City’s free, publicly funded 3-K and Pre-K programs, which cover the cost of the school-day program at our school. Availability and eligibility are managed through NYC Public Schools.

The NYC Administration for Children’s Services (ACS) offers child care vouchers that cover some or all child care costs for eligible families, based on income, family size, and other factors. Vouchers can be used at approved providers like our school.

Families receiving support through the Human Resources Administration (HRA) — including those on Cash Assistance or in job training/education programs — may also qualify for child care assistance that can be used toward tuition here.
