Q: Who can join SCHOLA Fellowship?
A: SCHOLA Fellowship serves families seeking to educate their children with a wide feast of subjects in the pursuit of Truth, Goodness, and Beauty in a determinedly Christian atmosphere. Anyone desiring to serve and be served in this capacity is welcome.
Q: What does SCHOLA Fellowship cost?
A: SCHOLA Fellowship is entirely staffed by our member families, who work cooperatively to run our weekly classes, therefore our fees are used entirely to cover the cost of supplies and materials.
Pre-school aged students (ages 5 and under): $25/year (per child)
School aged students (ages 6-18): $150/year (per child)
We do not currently offer sibling discounts, financial aid, or scholarships due to the low cost of our full-year program. That being said, SCHOLA will consider financial hardship situations on a case-by-case basis.
Q: Do your fees cover a single semester or the full academic year?
A: Our fees cover the full academic year. They are used to purchase supplies for the subjects we study in community, such as art and handicraft supplies, paper goods, nature study supports, etc. Once the school year begins, we are unable to refund fees except in extenuating circumstances, as the fees have been disbursed to purchase supplies whether or not your family ends up participating.
