Scholarship PLEDGE
A Commitment to Long-Term Impact
As a tuition-free school we rely entirely on the generosity of others to offer a full-scholarship, college-prep lower and middle school education to students who could not otherwise afford it. By funding a scholarship, you are supporting our students on their path to becoming leaders in their schools, careers and communities.
Scholarship Giving Levels
Four-year scholarships ensure that when a student starts 5th grade, we know we have the funds secured for that student to attend CJA through their 8th-grade graduation. Scholarships for 3rd- and 4th-grade students are funded separately. The true cost of educating a CJA student has grown since we opened our doors in 2005. We now spend an average of $29,500 per student which reflects a conscious decision to provide our students with the resources they deserve and need as we seek to care for the whole person, cura personalis, in the Jesuit tradition.
