Admissions ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. Financial Aid Assistance
Financial Aid
St. Paul’s Episcopal Montessori School makes a strong commitment to need-based financial aid in order to support students who otherwise may not be able to enjoy the benefits of Montessori education. All financial aid is based on the need or financial status of the student’s family, the number of requests received, and the number of financial aid funds available for a given school year.
St. Paul’s uses a nationally recognized service, TADS (Tuition Aid Data Services), to process financial aid applications. TADS applies standardized criteria to determine to what extent each family needs assistance to pay for one year’s tuition. The St. Paul’s Episcopal Montessori School Financial Aid Committee uses information from the TADS process to allocate the amount of financial aid available. You can find the application here: https://sssandtadsfa.force.com/familyportal
For assistance with your TADS application, you can contact their family support services by calling (800) 344-8328 or emailing sssandtadsfa@communitybrands.com.
TADS applications are due March 31. Returning families must re-apply for financial aid every year that they are seeking aid.

In addition to need-based financial aid, St. Paul’s has a few scholarship opportunities:
1. For both St. Paul’s Episcopal Church parishioner families and military families, we are able to offer tuition assistance through the Rev. Chester W. King Scholarship Fund.
2. For families who are committed to the Montessori Method, we have scholarship opportunities through the Kay Mijangos Scholarship Fund.
3. For families who are committed to spending their early childhood and elementary years at St. Paul’s, we have scholarship opportunities through the Peggy Jones Memorial Scholarship Fund.
