The Catholic Education Foundation at the Diocese of Joliet distributes hundreds of needs-based scholarships each year. Students K-12 are eligible to apply for financial assistance to help cover the cost of tuition. The tuition assistance grants are determined on an annual basis. Families must apply each year in order to be considered. All determinations are based on the grant and aid application from the FACTS Management Company , which can be found here: https://online.factsmgt.com/aid. Families are encouraged to complete this application in January and ensure that all required documentation is submitted by the deadline. Families will be notified of grant awards in the Spring. The award checks will be sent directly to the schools. More information and links can be found at the Catholic Education Foundation website: www.dioceseofjoliet.org/edfoundation or by calling the St. Pius X Parish School Office at 630-627-2353.

For all families who wish to make any special financial arrangements for the payment of tuition will be required to complete an aid application.  Families who request financial assistance must apply each school year. 

In an effort to help make tuition more affordable for families, St. Pius has a very active Manna program. When you purchase certificates at face value to use at local grocery stores, retail stores, gas stations, restaurants and more, a percentage of each certificate is put into a tuition account for your family. For more information, please visit the Manna section on this website.

St. Pius X Parish School, along with the Diocese of Joliet, strives to make Catholic education affordable to more families. 

Families who transfer their child/children in grades first through eight from public school will be eligible to receive a two year tuition grant. 

Families will receive a $1000 tuition grant for year 1, and subsequently a $500 grant for year 2. Please contact the School Office with any questions about this program.
