Making Catholic Education Accessible for All
At St. Francis of the Lakes Catholic School, we believe every family deserves access to an education rooted in the Catholic faith - no matter their financial circumstances.
That’s why we’re committed to offering tuition assistance to qualifying families. While our tuition rates contribute to the real cost of educating each child, we never want finances to be the reason a family feels they can’t be a part of our school community. Last year, over 20% of our school families received tuition assistance, and we are still currently accepting applications for the coming academic year.
How is this possible? It is thanks to the incredible generosity of our donors that we’re able to offer this level of support. For example, we had donors just this Spring participate in our Spring Gala’s Fund-a-Need campaign for tuition assistance, and they helped raise more than $59,000. This outcome far exceeded our $33,000 goal, and we can’t help but be blown away by their continuous generosity.
Of course, we know that every family’s situation is different, but our goal is to meet you where you’re at. We want to come along side you so that your child can grow in faith, knowledge, and confidence at a school that cares about their whole development—spiritually, academically, and socially. Therefore:
if you’re considering enrolling at St. Francis of the Lakes Catholic School, but are afraid of the burden tuition could create, please reach out to us right away.
