Financial grants are provided to those families who believe strongly in a Catholic education, but for whom the financial obligation is beyond their means. St. Aloysius School’s financial grants do not require repayment by the family.
The family bears the primary responsibility for financing a child’s education to the extent of their financial means; however, we invite and encourage any family who finds difficulty in meeting the financial obligations of their child’s education to apply. Part of the mission of the Diocese and our school is to help provide an education for all children. With regard to these grants, limited school resources are available and we ask that families exhaust all personal financial support prior to applying. We also require each family seeking financial assistance to apply for the Empower Illinois Grant found here; https://empowerillinois.org/apply/.
