GSA seeking a tuition increase from towns
BLUE HILL — George Stevens Academy is seeking a tuition increase of $1,000 per student from towns on the peninsula that send students to the semi-private secondary school.
Head of School Tim Seeley explained that GSA must abide by what the Maine Department of Education sets for a tuition rate, which currently is $12,000 a student. “What towns are voting on is agreeing to add $1,000 to that number.”
“The average cost to educate a student is over $16,000,” Seeley said. “We just can’t maintain a fullservice high school with programs for every student on the peninsula, which is our mission,” on the stateset tuition rate.
