Tuition Assistance Application
A tuition assistance application will be given to each requesting enrollee. Children's
House provides tuition support for families in need. The Tuition Assistance Program is
made possible by funding through in-house fundraising efforts, Corporate and Individual
donors, and major grant funding organizations. Annual an average of over 60% percent of our
students are able to attend as a direct result of these fundraising efforts. We strive to
ensure that our school is a place that is accessible to every child, regardless of financial
circumstances.
Children's House determines levels of support based on income and family size, tiers
reflect the Federal and State “Free- or Reduced-Lunch” guidelines. Tuition support
ranges from 15% to 60% off of tuition costs. Applications must be turned in with all
pertinent financial information. Incomplete applications will not be processed. Please be
sure to complete the application process prior to the first day of your child’s attendance.
Families must complete a new application each school year. Families will receive notice
of acceptance or denial, and award levels in a timely manner. Families may apply and be
awarded financial aid at any time during the school year, based on the availability of funds.
Upon acceptance into the Tuition Assistance Program, invoices will reflect your specified
support level in the next billing cycle. Tuition assistance will not be applied to past due
balances and does not apply to registration, snack or materials fees, nor to before/after school
programming. Additional enrollment paperwork is necessary, including an attendance
agreement.
The following criteria will be used to evaluate and rank each application:
1. Income level: The family must meet the low/moderate-income level and must
demonstrate the need for assistance in order for their child to qualify.
2. Attendance Agreement: The family must observe the Children’s House
Attendance Policy and sign an agreement.
4. Tuition payments: The family must remain current on tuition payments.

immediately withdrawn.
