Dear Parents/Guardians:

The Pastors’ Board, with the support of the Advisory Board, has implemented a Tuition-Assistance Program based on need for the 2013-2014 school year.  This is open to families enrolled in one of the co-sponsoring parishes. Parish membership is established by completing a registration form, worshipping regularly for at least six months and using envelopes, checks or on-line giving for donations.  Parents whose children are enrolled in grades kindergarten to 8 for the 2013-2014 school year may apply.

Parents obtain the application from their pastor beginning Monday, May 20, 2013, complete it and return it to Mrs. Rose Perry, the principal, by Monday, June 10, 2013. A committee of the advisory board will award the grants after reviewing the application, the narrative statement and the family’s 2012 IRS statement.  The grant would be for $500 or $1000 per child if there is more than one in the family.

If the family requires language or any other assistance, the school staff can assist in completing the application process. The applicants will be notified before July 1, 2013. 

We hope this financial program will help families make ends meet with tuition for Hoboken Catholic Academy.

Sincerely,
Fr. Alexander M. Santora, Chair of the Pastors’ Board; Our Lady of Grace & St. Joseph
