Heritage School’s Tuition Assistance program is as much a service to the school as it is to the recipient families. Our well-funded, need-based program increases the number of qualified candidates who can join our community and strengthens every program in the school by including precious students whose families could not otherwise provide classical and Christian education for their children. Heritage Tuition Assistance is:
- Need based (as determined by 3rd party service, FACTS)
- Kept confidential from teachers, staff, other families
- Initiated by application to factstuitionaid.com who verifies the
information against the applicant’s tax return
- 10% of current tuition income allocated for tuition assistance
- Awarded to 23% of the student body in 2009/2010
Tuition Assistance Policy
Heritage School recognizes the importance of extending a Christ-centered and classical education to all families regardless of income. The Board of Trustees has designated a percentage of tuition income to be reserved for tuition assistance candidates. The amount available is determined each year based on enrollment.
Recipients of tuition assistance must reapply each year. Aid will be awarded based on the following criteria:
· amount of tuition assistance available
· student’s behavior
· student’s academic performance
· family’s support/volunteerism
· family’s diligence in honoring current agreement
· family’s current ability to contribute toward tuition
Recipients of tuition assistance must comply with all
HeritageSchool policies. Failure to comply with these policies could result in suspension or expulsion.
Go to factstuitionaid.com for application instructions and a checklist. Families must apply and be accepted for admission before being considered for Tuition Assistance.
