Anyone seeking financial assistance may apply for a scholarship.
Employees of FUMCM are not eligible for scholarships. A
scholarship application will be available from the FUMCM Director
or the FUMCM Assistant Director. Priority will be given
to children already enrolled in the program when circumstances
change in the family.
Scholarlship guidelines
include having regular attendance and informing the school about
a child's absence. A child may be taken off scholarship if he/she
has four consecutive absences without notification to the FUMCM
Director's office.
The procedure for selection
of scholarships includes completing a new application and turning
it in by June 15th. The FUMCM Board Scholarship Committee,
comprised of the FUMCM Director, the FUMCM Board Chairperson,
the FUMCM Director of Children's Ministries, and one additional
FUMCM Board member, will review all applications for selection
and approve scholarships on a greatest need basis. A notification
letter will be then sent to notify the family with the first
month's tuition bill.
New applications will
continue to be accepted throughout the school year. The FUMCM
Board Scholarship Committee will review new applications for
selection on a monthly basis and approve new scholarships on
a greatest need basis, as funds are available.
Scholarship monies are
obtained through the "Love-a-Child" campaign, which
occurs annually at FUMC. The number of scholarships awarded each
year depends on the total monies received in the "Love-a-Child"
campaign. Scholarships may be awarded as partial or full
payment of tuition, depending on the family finances and the
availability of funds. Full registration fees and materials
fees will be charged for all children receiving a scholarship. |
