The Lyceum

Can a voucher be used at The Lyceum?

No. DEW's 2026-27 roster of nonchartered nonpublic schools names The Lyceum. Those schools run without a state charter on religious grounds, so Cleveland Scholarship and EdChoice dollars cannot follow a child there; tuition is set and supported by the school and its church.

As a Catholic school in the Diocese of Cleveland, families can ask here about Diocesan Tuition Assistance, the school's Angel Scholarship application and parish aid, and high school families about the diocese's named special scholarships.

What should we ask The Lyceum before we enroll?

1. Has the school applied for an Ohio charter, and without one, how do families afford it?
2. What does my child's grade cost per year, including books, devices and other fees?
3. Do you discount for siblings or members, award need-based aid, or receive money from a tax-credit SGO?
4. Which documents do you need from us to file the application, and when?
5. Which colleges do your students use for College Credit Plus, and when is the counseling session?
