2009-10 Registration & Tuition Fees

 
Major Donor Gift!
Trinity Christian School is thrilled to announce that the major donor tuition gift will once again be available to Trinity families for the 2009-10 school year.  This year, the allocation of the gift funds has been changed to allow more assistance to those with the most need.
Every student (PS-2 DAY through Gr 8) who enrolls at Trinity for the 2009-10 school year will receive a $500 reduction in their tuition. (The tuition costs BELOW also show the new rates after applying this gift.) 
Students in (K-8) with greater need can use the Private School Aid Service (PSAS) scholarship application to apply for more assistance.  Once your child is fully registered at Trinity, you can pick up a PSAS application.  PSAS will then take your information and provide the office with a ranking of students from greatest to least need.  Those with the greatest need will be eligible for an additional $1,500 in major donor funds. Those with lesser need will be eligible for and additional $1,000 or an additional $500 of major donor funds.  After the major donor funds are applied, you may also be eligible for additional help from the regular scholarship assistance.  Preschool students in need of additional assistance beyond the original $500 may contact the school office.
We thank God and our donor for this great blessing of financial assistance.   Through this program we hope to make a quality Christian education a reality for all parents in the Keene area.  If you have any questions about the Major Donor Gift, please contact me at the school office.

*Registration fee includes the annual cost of SMART administration fee.   SMART is a tuition management service that is employed by Trinity Christian School for our mutual benefit.  SMART is not affiliated with Trinity Lutheran Church nor with Trinity Christian School.

Parents choosing to pay tuition in ten monthly installments must enroll in the SMART program.  Payments are made directly to SMART through an automatic deduction from a bank account designated by the parents.  Monthly payments begin in July and continue through April.

SCHOLARSHIPS:  Need based scholarships are available for all TCS students in Kindergarten through 8th grade.  Scholarship applications are processed by an independent scholarship organization.  All personal information in the application remains with the independent scholarship organization, and is not shared with anyone on the school or church staff.  The independent scholarship organization sends to TCS a recommended scholarship amount based upon criteria submitted to them by the TCS School Board.   Parents with students in K-8 classes are eligible to apply for additional scholarship help through PSAS.  PSAS applications are available in the school office.  Preschool parents can apply for additional help by contacting the Principal’s office.We recommend ALL applicants concerned about financial issues to apply for these need based scholarships.  

Please contact Gary Dresser, principal, or his administrative assistant, Susan Hoffmann, for additional details.
