February 22, 2022
Happy TWOS-day Cardinals (Tuesday, 2/22/22)! This week is your friendly reminder to complete the process for re-enrollment for the 2022-23 school year. All enrollment and financial assistance forms are due by May 2, 2022.
Step 1: Complete the Blackbaud Re-Enrollment Update Form.
Step 2: Complete the Financial Assistance Process.
**If you are a current family who needs to enroll a new student (PreK or other grade), please call Jen at 402-556-6655 for details on this.
St. Cecilia Parish Tuition Assistance: The St. Cecilia Education Endowment Board awards at least $50,000 each year for school families who are in need of tuition assistance. If interested, families can go through the Blackbaud Financial Aid Management process. Please see the handout below for a detailed how-to tutorial for this process.
Children's Scholarship Fund: Children's Scholarship Fund (CSF) of Omaha provides partial-tuition scholarships to low-income children in Grades 1-8. The scholarships are awarded based on financial need. Just like St. Cecilia, CSF believes that all families, regardless of income should be able to choose the best educational setting for their children. By providing scholarship assistance during the time a child's educational foundation is being established, CSF believes that it is helping prepare children for continued success. There are two handouts below that outline the steps for applying for assistance from the CSF.
