Sending Towns
VT/NH Town Tuitioning Program
A “sending town” is defined as a Vermont or New Hampshire town without its own public school for one or more grades K-12. These towns pay tuition from the town education budget to send their students to a wide variety of approved public or independent schools.
Thetford, VT and Lyme, NH have articulated designation and/or partnership agreements with Thetford Academy. Visit the Vermont Agency of Education website for the complete list of Vermont school districts who tuition out one or more grades.
Thetford Academy also offers a private pay option for families who do not live in an approved sending town. For families seeking financial assistance with tuition fees, the Academy offers a limited amount need-based scholarship support each year.
