The schools in the Diocese of Stockton are blessed to have generous benefactors who understand the growing costs of educating a student and the impact these costs have on families.
Each Catholic school has provisions for awarding site-based scholarships. Parents should inquire with the local school about eligibility for and availability of these scholarships. The amounts, the requirements, and the determination regarding such are set by the school itself.
Additionally, all families registered in one of our Catholic elementary schools are eligible to apply for a diocesan scholarship: SEEDS – Growing Faith through Student Scholarships. SEEDS was founded with the sole purpose of expanding access to Catholic education for children from lower socio-economic backgrounds.
