If you have any questions regarding the application process for the St. Mary's School Trust scholarships or about other financial assistance that may be available, please contact the school office.
Additional Tuition Assistance - Again this year, tuition assistance will be available from funds provided by the Archbishop's Annual Appeal (AAA), the Catholic Schools' Support Program (CSSP) and our school's budget. These funds are distinct from the scholarships that are available from the St. Mary's Trust. The application period for the Trust Scholarships is also open now. Application details for the Trust Scholarships appear above.
To apply for tuition assistance from the Archbishop's Annual Appeal, CSSP and the school budget this year, your application must be submitted via SMARTAID. SMARTAID is a confidential service provided by SMART, LLC that helps schools to assess a family's need for financial assistance based on the information provided to SMARTAID by the family. St. Mary's School, with the guidance and advice of our pastor, Father Matera, will continue to be solely responsible for all tuition assistance decisions and the school will notify all applicants of any tuition assistance awards.
The application deadline for tuition assistance requests is May 15, 2016. There is a $35 fee to apply via SMARTAID. If this fee presents a hardship for your family, please contact Mrs. Gannatti.

April Service Project - During the month of April, our third grade class will be coordinating the collection of packages of paper napkins to be used at the House of Bread. The goal is to collect 1,000 packages of napkins! Thanks in advance for your support!
