Financial Aid is available for families who qualify. Please review the following policies regarding assistance, and then
complete the application and return it to the Administration Office by June 1 for aid consideration for the fall semester and by December 1
for aid consideration for the spring semester.
- No more than 25% of tuition assistance will be granted to families who qualify.
- All applicants must meet with the Financial Aid
Committee.
- Any application received after the deadline will
not be considered for assistance. An
applicant who is granted assistance for the fall semester need not
re-apply in December for the spring semester; however, he must submit a
letter indicating if and how the family’s financial status has
changed. All applicants must submit
a new financial aid form in June in order to be considered for assistance
for the fall semester.
- Any applicant who is granted financial assistance
will not receive more than a quarter of the tuition and must pay his
portion of the tuition by the tenth of each month in order to avoid losing
his financial assistance. All
applicants must pay the registration fees and book fees.
- Financial assistance is offered on a semester
basis only and is granted on the grounds of the family’s financial need; the
student’s ability, behavior, and character; the school’s availability of
funds; and the applicant’s payment history and the accuracy, completeness,
and promptness in filling out the Financial Aid Application. All decisions are subject to the School
Board’s approval.
- In order for a family to receive assistance, both
parents must be working full time or actively seeking full-time employment. Applicants who have been laid off from
their position of employment must also submit proof of their job
search.
- Financial aid is not available for students
entering the K3 and K4 programs or for students entering a grade level
that currently has a waiting list.
- Financial aid is not available to students in
grades nine through twelve; however, the school does offer a work
assistance program. Students who
wish to participate in work assistance must have earned a “C” average on
their report card the semester prior to working and must maintain a “C”
average while employed.
Additionally, a student on work assistance must not have earned
more than 30 demerits during the semester prior to their employment or at
any time during their employment. If you wish for your child to participate
in work assistance, please complete the Financial Aid Application.
Students on work assistance typically earn $200 to $300 per month,
depending upon how many hours they work.
Thank
you for your attention to details in this matter, and please understand that we
are not promising financial assistance to everyone who applies. Each application will be reviewed according
to the terms listed above, and the applicants will be notified before the start
of the semester. If you have any
questions regarding financial assistance, please contact the Administration Office.
