Dear Parents and Guardians,
We want to share exciting news that benefits all Catholic school students. Last week, Governor Mike DeWine signed House Bill 33 into law, solidifying an extensive expansion of the Ohio Department of Education’s EdChoice Scholarship Program.
All K-12 students in Ohio NOW qualify to receive a state-funded scholarship that could cover a portion of their Catholic school tuition. Your child’s specific EdChoice Scholarship amount depends on your family’s 2022 gross annual income and size. This amount could be as much as $8,407/year for children in grades 9-12.
The State Scholarship System is currently closed. We will be sharing more information just as soon as it becomes available, including important instructions about how to submit your EdChoice Scholarship Request Form for the coming school year. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding this summer as, together, we navigate the steps necessary to maximize the benefit of the EdChoice Scholarship for your child and Elyria Catholic.
If you are currently receiving a state scholarship (EdChoice, EdChoice Expansion, Jon Peterson, or Autism), no new action is required of you at this time.
Lastly, and in anticipation of having more details and firm instructions to share with you, we will hold an EdChoice Scholarship Information Meeting on Tuesday, August 1, at 6:30 p.m. in the James E. Terrell Performing Arts Center. More details will follow about this gathering as the date approaches.
With gratitude and joy,
