Boarding fees

- Brookstone operates as a day school and does not offer a boarding program; therefore boarding fees are not applicable.

Other costs and routine additional fees

- Uniforms: a standardized uniform is required; all standardized dress items must be purchased through Lands' End or the school's Cougar Shop (on‑campus). Expect to purchase shirts, bottoms, outerwear, and any division‑specific items for each student. Uniform costs are billed/paid directly to the vendor and vary by item.

- Incidental or activity fees: some extracurricular activities, athletics, fine arts materials, travel for competition or trips, and optional program fees may be billed separately to family accounts during the year.

Refund information

- The family's financial obligation is for the full annual tuition as stated in the school's enrollment contract; the school does not refund tuition or cancel unpaid obligations if a student withdraws during the academic year. The school's Tuition Refund Plan (insurance) will pay benefits to the school subject to the policy terms and amount insured, which provides assistance in meeting the family's financial obligation in qualifying circumstances.

Fee payment options and practical notes on payments

- Tuition and fees are managed through the school's tuition/payment portal (Blackbaud/parent.blackbaud.school). Families may use the school's online tuition portal to schedule payments. Blackbaud's tuition platform commonly accepts bank account (ACH/direct debit) payments and credit/debit card payments; platform or processing fees may apply depending on payment method and the school's settings. Expect the school to offer bank draft (ACH) and credit/debit card payment options through the tuition portal.
