Financial Assistance: 2011-2012
This year we will again be using an outside service to help determine finanical assistance awards. Parents can begin the application process as soon as the 2011-2012 tuition rates are announced.
In order to apply for this award, please complete the application form and send it to Private School Aid Service, P.O. Box 770728, Lakewood, Ohio 44107-0034 along with a reduced fee of $15.00. This fee should be sent in the form of a check written out to Private School Aid Service. All applications must be mailed on or before April 20th in order to be processed. Please note that applicatons that are not completely filled out or that are missing a tax return will not be processed. The application package is available in the school office. You may also visit the Private School Aid Service web site at www.psas.org and apply on-line. The Mary, Seat of Wisdom school code is 1943.
PSAS will send us recommendations for the awards in May. They will be anonymously reviewed and approved by the Finance Committee of the School Board, and you will be notified of the award in June.
Please note that our former policies shall apply:
- School Board members will not have access to the family names on application forms.
- Financial assistance is available for students in Kindergarten – Grade 8. Pre-school does not qualify.
- You must be a Mary, Seat of Wisdom parishioner for at least one year to receive a financial assistance award.
In the name of the Mary, Seat of Wisdom Parish and the School Board we appreciate your cooperation with this procedure. We do firmly believe that no parish child should be turned away from MSW School for financial reasons. We are aware of the financial sacrifices parents make to send your children to a Catholic school, and we hope we can be of assistance.
If you have any questions, please call Mr. Tim Shaughnessy at 847-825-3153.
