Every family at St Theresa of the Child Jesus School is expected to contribute to the cost of education, thus supporting our school community to the extent family circumstances permit. Financial aid is awarded in the form of grants which do not need to be paid back. Grants received from the Catholic Schools Foundation are renewable each year, provided the family demonstrates financial need each year. In order to assess what a family can afford for educational costs, we use the FACTS Grant & Aid system as an objective and independent third party. FACTS Grant & Aid calculations are the baseline for our financial aid determinations. We allocate aid based on calculated need: income minus expenses, as well as other information the family may provide in support of the aid application. We also take into consideration the school’s policies and the resources available for both re-enrolling and new students. We also work with families that have multiple children enrolled in the school to support their commitment to Catholic education.
Pre-Kindergarten tuition is not eligible for financial aid and represents the same flat rate whether the child attends full-time or part-time. Families that receive financial aid are not eligible for the 5% tuition discount.

Tuition payment plans will be adjusted in June. In order to be considered for financial aid, the following forms must be supplied to the school office via the FACTS portal before April 1:
