Scholarships
Sacred Heart Cathedral School is committed to keeping tuition affordable for every family seeking Catholic education for their children.
Step Up for Students
All families are eligible to apply for the Florida Tax Credit Scholarship and Family Empowerment Scholarship for Educational Options through https://www.stepupforstudents.org/scholarships/.
This program expands eligibility for all K-12 students, regardless of household income. It is an education savings account, or “ESA,” allowing families more flexibility in how they invest in their children’s education.
For families who will use the scholarship for full-time private school tuition and fees, parents/guardians must agree to have their Scholarship Funding Organization, or “SFO,” commit scholarship funds on behalf of their students before using ESA funds for other authorized uses of program funds.
Any family can apply for financial assistance
Since 1906, we have remain rooted in our Catholic tradition, and strived for academic excellence. None of this would be possible without you.
Like almost everything, the cost of education continues to rise: increased teacher salaries and benefits and the cost of textbooks and consumable materials rise yearly. Beyond seeking to keep Catholic Tuition rates affordable, we can recommend the following resources, scholarships, grants, and subsidies.
All families must first apply for either the Florida Tax Credit Scholarship or the Family Empowerment Scholarship for Educational Options before being considered for additional grants. For families who still have a demonstrated financial need, you may request additional information about other grant or scholarship options.
Do you offer before and after school care?
Students may be dropped off in the morning as early as 7:00am (no additional fee) and will meet in the gym until 7:30am when they will go to their homeroom classroom.
The Extended Care Program is available until 5:30pm.
How do parents get involved?
Volunteers are an integral part of the success of our school, both through events and activities. The Diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee requires that all volunteers, chaperones and fieldtrip drivers complete a Level-2 background clearance. The cost is $65 and the packets are available in the school office.
Is bus service available?
We do not own nor operate any sort of transportation service. You may request a zip code list mid-summer to check on creating a carpool.
Does Sacred Heart have a hot lunch program?
While the majority of students bring their own lunch, families may order lunch in advance through the online lunch program Campus Cuisine.
What are the school hours?
Monday-Friday 7:45am – 2:45pm.
