Financial aid for grades K-8 is provided by The Foundation to Advance Catholic Education (FACE) whose goal is to provide needs-based scholarships to ensure that no child is denied the opportunity of attending a Catholic school in the Diocese of Fall River due to financial hardship.
All families are encouraged to apply as awards range from $250-$2750 per student and can cover up to 50% of tuition, depending upon the school, resulting in a monthly tuition payment of $200-$300 or less. Awards are determined by a family’s financial circumstances at the time of application and families are encouraged to complete their applications by the deadline for the best chance of receiving an award.
