Financial Aid
Financial Aid is available to K-12th grade students and is awarded based on the financial need of each family. Families seeking Financial Aid must file a timely online application with FACTS.
Interested families, prior to filing the Financial Aid application with FACTS Grant and Aid System, must apply with the admissions office for enrollment for each student. Returning students must be re-enrolled. Please note that funds are very limited.
Awards are granted for one school year and will offset annual tuition only. All Award recipients will be on the monthly Tuition Payment Plan (12 equal installments, June – May). There are additional fees that will be due to FCS from Aid award recipients. Families will be responsible for Fixed Fees such as Campus Improvement and Security Fee, and MS/HS Class Fee (non-refundable), and when applicable, other fees such as: Contracted Student Support Services, After School Care, etc.
