Tuition Assistance for 2025-2026

The Tuition Assistance application process launched on Friday, November 8, 2024, for the 2025-2026 academic year. We understand that families view tuition as an important investment in their child’s future, and we strive to make this opportunity accessible to all families. We want to give everyone plenty of time to consider your financial situation and needs as we head into the holiday season.

Getting Started

Please go to the Clarity Application link on our website on the Tuition Assistance page to create your account and begin your application process.

The deadline for all returning families to apply is Friday, January 10, 2025.

If you have any questions about Tuition Assistance, contact Melinda Madurai, Director of Finance, at mmadurai@thegirlsschool.org or 512-478-7827 to schedule an appointment.

So Long, Farewell

This week we say 'good-bye’ to Jackie Magno, GSA’s Marketing and Communications Manager. For the past 2 years, Jackie brought her graphic design and social media magic to the Advancement department. We will miss her eager-to-help enthusiasm and wish her all the best!

2024 Mini-Grant Recipients

As part of our Firebird Fund campaign, every class that reaches 100% is given a mini-grant to gift to the organization of their choice. After some fantastic conversations with the classes that reached 100%, they have selected their organizations for this year. The conversations around this decision and the questions that were asked showed a profound understanding of all the good work non-profit organizations are doing in our community and our world. GSA students want to make an impact and be part of the solutions to big problems we can see around us. This microgrant was an exciting way to share causes they are passionate about and then support those in a tangible way.
