What’s the Bottom Line?When considering Tapestry of Grace, many families ask the question, “What’s this going to cost us?” This is a difficult question to answer, partly because Tapestry is so easily customized, and partly because its recommended books are so easily located in libraries or at discount prices. Yet, to enable our customers to make the best pos-sible decision for their family, we have compiled this price list for Tapestry of Grace Year 1 DE.

CurriculumComponentsBelow, we divide our program and its supplements into two categories: Primary and Secondary. The Primary section lists major components. The necessary core of this program is the Tapestry of Grace year-plan. It is possible to use a year-plan without MapAids or Writing Aids, but these spare the teacher from large amounts of extra work. Secondary components aren’t necessary for teaching Tapestry, but they do en-rich your family’s educational experience. These are the base prices.

The bottom line is value.Our estimate is that the totality of Tapestry, including the curriculum, all supplementary prdoucts, and books for all four years purchased at full price, comes to approximately $11,000. Allow us to put that in context for you.

Saxon Math 12 years one subject some students teacher and student materials: $1,975

Private School* 12 years all subjects one student average tuition (plus books): $93,000

Tapestry 12 years six subjects all students teacher and student materials: $11,000*Taken from 2013-2014 tuition of an average private school - not counting rising tuition costs.Please note that, given the complexity and flexibility of curricula, all of these numbers are estimated.

How do you measure value? Compare Tapestry in the chart above with one popular math program, or with an average private school’s tuition. To the right, think about value that comes from reusing Tapestry materials with multiple children. Imagine paying only $1,833 per child for the K-12 humanities studies of 6 children—and the joy of being there for every single “Oh!” moment.

number of children Here’s one way to look at it: You’d pay (at retail prices) these amounts per child for their entire K-12 education in 6 subjects.
