Tuition Assistance Programs
1. $750 tuition for new enrollee in grades K-6. Any family who is enrolling a new student or students in Kindergarten through 6th grade will receive their first year tuition on the youngest child at a rate of $750 plus the registration fee.
2. 2% off tuition for returning families. Any family with us right now will earn 2% off their 8th grade tuition for every year they are with us. For example, a third grader with us this year, if they stay until 8th grade, would earn a total of 10% off their 8th grade tuition.
3. TWB for Tuition. When Purchasing Together We’re Better certificates, parents may designate that 50% of the profit be used for tuition. Parents of 8th grade students may designate it for funding their child’s class trip. Church members can also designate that their TWB profits go toward a school family of their choice, or have it continue to help fund PATS ministry here at Salem.
4. $200 off tuition for referrals. This is not a new policy, but one that we want to reenergize. If you tell someone about Salem Lutheran School and then they enroll at Salem, you will receive a $200 tuition credit during the second semester of the academic year.
5. Salem Grant in Aid. Parents who are members of Salem Lutheran Church in good standing are eligible for applying for a Grant-in-Aid provided their children are currently attending or have registered to attend Salem Lutheran School. A FACTS Grant Assessment Application must be completed to certify your need for assistance. All families making application shall maintain a 75% church attendance ratio. Aid will be granted monthly as long as the church attendance ratio of 75% is maintained.
6. LESA Building Blocks Scholarship. Building Blocks Scholarship Fund offers financial aid to children from economically disadvantaged families who wish to attend Lutheran elementary schools in the greater St. Louis area. No family’s grant shall exceed one-half of their normal tuition amount. For more information, visit LESA’s website: www.lesastl.org
