Admission

Enrollment Information

Our Mother of Sorrows / Saint Ignatius of Loyola school is open to children of all backgrounds in grades pre-k through eight. Most families enroll in the spring, however, if space is available, students may enroll at any time. Families considering enrolling a child are encouraged to visit the school, attend an open house, or have their child ‘shadow’ a student at either school. Enrollment is now open for the 2012-2013 School Year. Please bring a completed admission form with applicable fees to the school office.

Financial Aid

No family pays the full amount of their child’s education as parent responsibility is only half the cost of education. In addition, the schools are able to distribute scholarships from their endowments based on a combination of need, family involvement, and student effort. We also offer support to families who apply for scholarships from organizations including The McGinnis Scholarship Fund, Children’s Scholarship Fund, Business Leaders Organized for Catholic Schools, and the Kremer Foundation. In 2010-2011 98% of students received scholarships. It is our goal that financial limitations will never prevent a child from reaching his or her God-given potential.

 

 

 

 

“I am so thankful and humble

             to my mom for all the sacrifices she has made and

             continues to make in order

for me to have a quality

             education by attending Catholic school.”
