Once again, we are pleased to offer the Parent's Choice Bursaries for the 2017/18 school year. This year our intention is to award a total of 450 bursaries (renewals and new bursaries). The parameters for the program can be found on our website,
www.theprossercharitablefoundation.ca
.
There are some things which I wish to give special attention:
1)
Our mailing address is:
The Prosser Foundation
Parent's Choice Bursaries
201 908 17 Ave SW
Calgary, AB T2T 0A3
2)
On the application, under School Section, we have clarified the Tuition reported is the actual tuition for the student. Tuition does not include bussing, activity, supplies, etc. Any discounts (ie multiple students from same family) should also be deducted from the reported tuition.
3)
The income guideline for low income cut-off is used at the discretion of the selection committee. We do not want to discourage any family from applying.
5)
Applications will be accepted from February 1, 2017 to March 25, 2017.
6)
Selection will be made in the following order: 1: renewals; 2: students new to the school (1st year offered preferred); 3: all others (by lottery).
7)
We anticipate an increase in the number of applications we will receive and ask that
they be checked for completeness before submission. Please ensure that all parts are filled in; that they are signed by both the Parent & school authority; and that each is accompanied with the back-up income documentation.
We look forward to working with you again this year.
Yours truly,
Kathy Prosser, Executive Director
