We believe that if we are in God’s will, He will supply our needs. Often families who want Christian education the most are the ones that cannot afford it. If a family feels that the full tuition is unmanageable, they can apply for tuition assistance. SFCA will work with you to try to create a payment plan that works for your family. Financial assistance can be awarded to a maximum of 50% of tuition unless extenuating circumstances apply. These special circumstances require Board approval.

SFCA has contracted with Family Financial Needs Assessment (FFNA). If you feel you need financial assistance, please pick up a financial aid application in the school office and submit it to FFNA or apply through FFNA online at www.ffna1.com. The application deadline for the each school year is April 1. Applications for financial aid must be postmarked by April 1 to be considered for financial assistance. The application fee is $20 and is payable to FFNA. Applications received after April 1 will be considered only if additional financial assistance monies are available. For more information please call the school for an FFNA brochure or review the brochure on FFNA’s website. After reviewing FFNA’s evaluation of your information and needs, the Board of Directors will send a letter or talk with you to help as much as possible.

In addition to providing needs-based financial assistance, SFCA participates in the Great Lakes Scrip Program, which allows families to benefit from shopping at participating restaurants and stores. A percentage of each purchase, determined by the retailer, is credited to the family’s account and is applied directly toward the student’s tuition.
