SCHOLARSHIPS
Florida Tax Credit (Income Based & HB1 Scholarships) are an initiative of the Florida Tax Credit Scholarship program that provides K-12 education scholarships for ALL students. See the link for more information. www.stepupforstudents.org
In no case will the sum of a student’s scholarship, plus any discount received, exceed the sum of a student’s annual tuition plus any includable fees. Includable fees are fees that are allowed to be paid by the scholarship funds, as defined by the scholarship directive.
Financial Aid
A limited amount of Financial Aid is available. This assistance is based on financial need. The application process includes completing a confidential financial statement, which is filed electronically or mailed by the family directly to FACTS. This third-party service informs the school of the amount of assistance for which the family qualifies. The level of assistance is based on the Financial Aid for School Tuition recommendation and the total amount of resources available. Families requesting financial aid should refer to the school website for information.
FACTS: All families are required to enroll in FACTS. To set up your account, go to www.factsmgt.com > Parent Log In. You may choose your monthly payment due date of the 1st, 5th, or the 10th of the month. Payments received after your due date will be accessed as a $35.00 late fee.
