Attention all BC parents applying for 2022-2023 Financial Aid:
Financial Aid Applications are now due
|
If you wish to be considered for financial aid for the 2022-2023 school year and have not completed your financial aid application, please do so as soon as possible. While the posted deadline has passed, Bishop Chatard will continue to accept financial aid applications for a limited time. Instructions on how to apply are available here.
Applications for financial aid are made through the FACTS portal. If you have previously used FACTS with another school, it is imperative that you use the same username and password to sign in and add BCHS to your profile. While you will continue to be able to see all of your family's information, BCHS can only access information pertaining to your student who is enrolled here.
** A NOTE OF CLARIFICATION REGARDING FACTS **
No tuition billing information will be on your account until later in June. This is a new billing process and will take some additional time to implement for the 2022/2023 school year. Please allow the business office time to accurately include all billing items on your account as we strive to streamline this process going forward. Thank you for your patience.

Free Meals for Students During Summer |
The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) is a federally-funded, state-administered program. Children 18 years and younger may receive free meals and snacks through SFSP. At most sites, children receive either one or two reimbursable meals each day. Certain camps and sites may be approved to serve up to three meals to each child, each day.
Text “summer meals” or “verano” (for Spanish) to 914-342-7744 and receive an automated response to resources located near an address and/or zip code. The USDA National Hunger Hotline number has not changed. Individuals can still call 1-866-3-HUNGRY or 1-877-8-HAMBRE to speak with a representative who will find food resources such as meal sites, food banks, and other nearby social services.
No Kid Hungry is devoted to help people find free, healthy meals that are served by organizations in your community. You can also find these resources by texting the word FOOD to 304-304 or visit NoKidHungry.org/help to find free meals in your neighborhood. Contact Michael Dlugosz at mdlugosz@bishopchatard.org with any questions.

Christian Service Program |
The class expectations for Christian Service vary from year to year to provide a holistic formation for our students. While service can be defined in a number of ways, Campus Ministry has intentionally laid out expectations for each year based on specific learning objectives.
Each year of the Bishop Chatard experience expands students’ scope and understanding of what it means to serve as Jesus calls us to in the Gospel. Click here to visit the new service page and learn more about class expectations!

AP Test Scores: Activate Free Send by June 20 |
AP test takers should activate their free score send by the June 20 deadline.
Every year that students take an AP® Exam, they have the option to send one score report free of charge to the college, university, or scholarship organization of their choice. Score reports include both this year’s and past AP Exam scores unless students choose to withhold or cancel a score.
Students in all grades should take advantage of their free score send. For seniors, it’s a good way to ensure they get the credit or placement they’ve worked so hard for. For juniors, sophomores, and freshmen, using their free score send can help students stand out earlier.
