EdChoice Scholarship Program

The Educational Choice Scholarship (EdChoice) Program provides students from designated public schools the opportunity to attend participating private schools. The program also provides low-income students who are entering kindergarten through 12th grade scholarship opportunities.

Active Parishioner Tuition Aid

School tuition and fees cover only a portion of the cost to educate each student. St. Aloysius Gonzaga Parish provides approximately half of the amount and this is the reason for the difference in parishioner and non-parishioner tuition.

For the purposes of receiving the parish contribution toward tuition, the St. Aloysius Gonzaga Parish Education Commission defines active members of St. Aloysius Gonzaga Parish as:
a.  Register at the St. Aloysius Gonzaga rectory.
b. Demonstrate devotion to Sunday worship with the parish community.
c. Involved in the parish ministries, activities or committees.
d. Consistently contributing to the financial support of the parish through Sunday envelopes based upon family means.

Members of St. Aloysius Gonzaga Parish will pay the tuition amount as determined by the parish Finance Council and Education Commission.

Families who choose not to financially support the parish, or otherwise fail to meet the definition of active members of the parish, will be classified as non-active members. Non-active members will be required to pay the full per capita cost of tuition for their child(ren).

St. Al’s offers tuition aid to families active in the parish (as defined above). This helps to ensure that all children of the parish have the opportunity to receive a Catholic grade school education. Applications for tuition aid are available through FACTS and maintained with this outside organization handling all necessary paperwork.
