Educational Choice (EdChoice) Scholarship
The Educational Choice Scholarship (EdChoice) Program provides students from designated public schools the opportunity to attend participating private schools. The program also provides students who are entering kindergarten through 12th grade scholarship opportunities based on their household income level.
The EdChoice Scholarship Program provides tuition assistance to families through two types of scholarships: Traditional (Location-Based) and Expansion (Income-Based).

To be considered, families must complete the FACTS application by the March 15, 2024 deadline.
We understand the financial commitment families make to provide a Catholic education at SMM, and we encourage all eligible families to apply, even if unsure. This need-based aid is awarded based on household income, so completing the application ensures you are considered for all available assistance.
