Tuition Assistance
Catholic Family Grant Program
The St. John the Evangelist Parish Catholic Family Grant Program exists to provide aid to families that need financial support to provide a Catholic education for their children in grades kindergarten through eighth. This year the Parish Finance Committee and Pastoral Council have pledged monies, as needed, up to $130,000 for the Program. Grants are awarded to families on the basis of both demonstrated need and level of participation in the ministries of the Catholic Church. Preference is given to registered parishioners and families who give most generously of their time, talent and treasure to the campus-wide community of St. John the Evangelist. If you believe your resources are not sufficient to meet the total cost of a St. John education, you are encouraged to apply. The application for this grant can be found here.
