Tuition Assistance Policy

Families seeking financial help with tuition can apply for financial assistance. All tuition assistance is based on a demonstrated need using the FACTS Grant and Aid Needs Assessment. The Tuition Assistance committee will then consider the assessment made by FACTS along with other supporting documentation and make recommendations to the Board for financial assistance packages. Upon Board approval, families will be notified of whether they will be awarded tuition assistance and the amount of the award. The following conditions will apply to this policy:

  1. Book fees and registration must be paid by the family.
  2. The family must pay the $25 fee for the outside assessment done by FACTS.
  3. All tuition assistance monies are contingent upon admission of the student by the Admission Committee and the student remaining in good academic and behavioral standing with the school.
  4. Deadline for applications will be April 30th of the previous school year.
  5. Award amounts are not guaranteed to be the same from year to year.
  6. Families are required to re-apply each year if they seek tuition assistance.
  7. The school will notify applicants of award amounts by June 15th.
