Order Form: https://forms.gle/yAqev8wgdGJ5hJFFA

 

SCHOLARSHIPS:  

The school provides a list of agencies offering scholarships. It is the parent's responsibility to make themselves aware of the scholarships available, read the school's notifications and newsletters, know if the scholarship is to be mailed directly to the agency or to our school, know and adhere to the deadline dates for applications, paying any fees required with the application, and photocopying your application for your records, for proof that you completed the forms, and for use if there are any issues. If you have questions regarding scholarships, please feel free to contact the school office and they will direct your call to the proper person. 

 

On-time tuition installments must still be received even if you have applied for a scholarship.  Scholarship amounts vary greatly and we do not know the exact date we will receive them, yet our school still needs to operate until they do come in and tuition payments are needed in a timely manner. If a scholarship is received and applied to your account, and your personal payments create a credit on your account, you may receive a reimbursement for that credit. 

Most scholarships are applied per month over the entire school year. This means that you may not discontinue making your monthly installments. Your monthly installment may be reduced by the amount of the scholarship per month, or you may apply the scholarship at the end of your tuition installments for the school year. If you withdraw your student from the school during the school year, we will be required to return the amount of the scholarship for the months not attended. Below are some foundations that are accepting applications:

Fayette County Residents:

Pre-K: There is currently no funding available for Pre-K. Should funding become available we will list it in the Wednesday email.

 

K-12: I have attached the applications. Please make sure you read and follow all the instructions on the attached application.

•  All applications must be postmarked on or before July 31, 2024.

​

Reminder: We still have many report card envelopes that have not been returned. Please return these envelopes or remind your student(s) to return them if they are done with them. We need to refill them with the last report card for the year and then they are yours to keep.

Thank you!

​

Envelopes: We are getting envelopes with payments of all sorts but some do not have enough information on the envelope to decipher what it is for. Please put on the envelope what it is for with the students name. Example: Tuition, lunch, Jog for Jesus (T-shirt, T-shirt Ad, Donation) ETC…. Thank you!

Our school group is not in need of additional chaperones. We understand that some parents are still interested in attending. Since tickets cannot be purchased at the gate or online, we will permit parents to order tickets through our CCCS park request. Parent tickets ordered through our reservation will only cover park entrance (student tickets cover lunch, transportation, and a bonus Sandcastle ticket) Transportation and lunch arrangements are not included for parent tickets. The fee is $35. Email heatherbakewell@ccbrownsville.org to request parent tickets. Payment must be submitted before a ticket will be ordered. No refunds can be given once tickets are purchased. Tickets cannot be redeemed for a regular season date, only an education day. Please keep all of this in mind as you plan for this event.
