We strive to make a St. Mary of the Assumption School education accessible to all families, regardless of their financial situation. Through the generosity of St. Mary's alumni, parishioners, parents, and friends we are able to offer assistance through our Adopt-A-Student program as well as the Horvath Endowment Tuition Fund. Families are also encouraged to apply for Diocesan Tuition Assistance through the FACTS Grant & Aid portal.
In order to be considered for either the Diocesan Tuition Assistance program or our St. Mary Adopt-A-Student Tuition Assistance, you must complete and submit a FACTS Grant & Aid application for your family. There are only two deadlines for submitting your FACTS application and one deadline for submitting your Adopt-A-Student Tuition application for consideration:

HORVATH ENDOWMENT TUITION FUND
The Horvath Endowment was established by the family of Martha A. Horvath, in order to follow her wishes to provide financial assistance to families who believe in Catholic education but are unable to afford it. We are reaching out to families that may have considered our school as an education option for their child(ren) or who may have withdrawn from our school due to financial circumstances. In order for your family to be considered, you will need to complete and submit to Father Tom the short two-page Horvath Tuition Assistance Application. In an effort to establish a commitment by both parties, we will ask that you contribute a minimal monthly tuition amount.
If you have any questions, please contact Carol Lorek in the parish office at carol.lorek@stmarysmentor.org or (440) 255-3404.
