Financial Assistance
 
St. Joseph Catholic School provides 100% of demonstrated need to qualifying families.
 
To receive assistance, parents are required to complete a Student Aid Form (FACTS) and submit copies of their last tax return to show proof of financial need. 
 
Financial assistance for Catholic families is given by the parish to which they belong. In addition to completing the FACTS application on-line, parents must also have the acknowledgement of their pastor that they are affiliated with a parish, by having the Tuition Commitment form signed by the pastor or his representative.
 
“Guardian Angel Fund” is financial assistance for families who are in need of additional financial assistance above and beyond the subsidy amount given by their parish or corporate scholarship (Step Up, AAA, McKay).
 
It is expected that those receiving assistance take part in fundraisers, follow school policy, and maintain scholastic progress according to their abilities.
