The Diocesan Catholic Education Foundation will be awarding scholarship grants worth a minimum of $700 to elementary school families for the 2024-2025 school year. Students entering kindergarten through grade eight are eligible for assistance.<\/span><\/p>\n

The deadline for applying to\u00a0FACTS<\/a> is March 1st. You should apply online at https:\/\/online.factsmgt.com\/aid<\/a>. Please be aware that all supporting documentation must be sent to the FACTS Office by March 1st.

A frequent question that is asked is what income level is too high and cuts off tuition assistance. Income is just one factor considered \u2013 other factors include housing costs, number of children, other tuition costs, special circumstances, etc. We cannot give a specific dollar amount as to whether to apply or not.<\/span><\/p>\n

Families who were granted awards last year must re-apply. Families will be notified in May of awards. Additional notification will be sent to the school. There is a $35 fee for the application.<\/span><\/p>\n

It should be noted that this scholarship is not related to the Jim Feeney Memorial Scholarship or any other tuition assistance provided by I.C.S. Families planning to apply for a scholarship provided by I.C.S. should also apply for this. Please contact the school office if you need more information.<\/span><\/p>\n
