Parenting Topics
There are many Christian parents who desire to have their children educated and nurtured by Christian education; However, the additional cost of tuition to the basic family budget can oftentimes be next to impossible for some. Trinity Christian School desires to offer tuition assistance to qualified parents with financial needs that would prevent enrollment of their children otherwise. Financial Aid applications (tuition assistance applications) may be obtained in the Business Office, during the regular registration period. Trinity Christian uses an independent financial consultant, Family Financial Needs Assessment, (FFNA) in order to provide the applicant with confidentiality and third party objectivity.Tuition assistance is supported through yearly fundraising in conjunction with the recommendation of FFNA, and at the discretion of Trinity Christian Schools. FFNA does charge a minimal processing fee to the applicant that is made payable to FFNA and mailed with the financial aid application directly to FFNA. Trinity Christian does not receive your personal financial information. A fifty percent reduction in tuition is the maximum for which a family may qualify. The family applying for tuition assistance must have registered their child before a tuition assistance packet can be issued. Click here to apply online for tuition assistance.
