MAY CROWNING       

Our school will hold its annual May Procession and Crowning Prayer Service on Tuesday, May 22, 2018 in the cafeteria. As in the past, our 2nd grade students will process in their First Communion outfits along with our eighth grade students in their "Sunday best." Our statue of Our Lady of Fatima will be crowned as we prayerfully remember Mary's role as Queen of Heaven and Earth. The Prayer Service begins at 9:00 a.m. Parents, as always, are invited to attend.

 

FACTS TUITION RE-ENROLLMENT 

Most Blessed Sacrament is once again using the FACTS Payment Program. You will soon be receiving information from FACTS Tuition about the re-enrollment process. Your original agreement authorizes FACTS to roll over your information from one year to the next. Please be aware that no payments or fees will come out of your account until after the tuition rates have been added. You will need to contact FACTS  if you wish to change your method of payment, your plan name and/or your address. If you want to make any changes to whether you pay quarterly, monthly or in full, please return the FACTS document to the school As Soon As Possible. We will be adding the tuition rates to each account after June 1, which will complete the process. Changes to enrollment status will be made at that time. 

ALL FAMILIES MUST BE ENROLLED IN FACTS BEFORE JUNE 1! In order for payments to run 10 months, FACTS must have the information a full month in advance.

Should you select the one time payment plan and DO NOT make the payment by September 1st, MBS will automatically change your plan to a 10 month schedule and you will be charged a fee.

PROUD MOMENT 

The Maryland BOOST Program is a state sponsored tuition support initiative for families who reside in Maryland and choose to have their children attend nonpublic schools in Maryland. BOOST is funded by private donations from donors who receive tax incentives for their donations. All Maryland resident MBS families who have reenrolled or have newly enrolled their children are encouraged to review the eligibility requirements for the Maryland BOOST Program (refer to the Parent Survey that accompanies this communication) and complete the application if they may be eligible. Eligibility follows the guidelines for free and reduced meals that is also used to determine our school's federal funding for Title II-Part A, Title I and Title V. A flyer from the Maryland State Department of Education that provides details for completing the BOOST application process is accompanying this communication. Please see the flyer from the MSDE for the link to the application.  BOOST Flyer 

 

In order to assist families in determining if they may be eligible for tuition support through the BOOST Program, we are including the Parent Survey which families complete in September of each school year. If after reviewing the Parent Survey, you feel that you may qualify for BOOST funding, please complete the application and submit it before May 21, 2018. Parents do not need to complete the Parent Survey at this time as it is provided as a guide to assist in determining possible eligibility for BOOST. Family Survey 

 

THE APPLICATION PORTAL IS NOW OPEN, AND MAY ACCESSED THROUGH THE FLYER FROM THE MSDE.

ONCE AGAIN, THE DEADLINE FOR BOOST TUITION SUPPORT IS MAY 21, 2018.
