At SJDA, we believe a Catholic education should be available, accessible and affordable to any family that wants to provide their child with a quality education.
Bishop Scholarship Fund
Bishop Walkowiak has greatly increased the number of available scholarships for diocesan Catholic schools. All families, whether enrolling for the first time or already enrolled, can apply for Bishop's Scholarships.
Smart Aid is the third-party agency used by diocesan schools to evaluate need. Families enrolling for the 2019-2020 school year need to fill out a Smart Aid application. Families fill out just one application, regardless of the number of K-12 students in their families. The application assures that the family is considered for both diocesan and individual school scholarships. Families can apply at any time.
