The cost of educating our students is not covered by tuition alone. We trust God every year to provide for this ministry through gifts. The annual Partnership Fund is designed to communicate our fundraising needs to parents and friends in order to support the school financially. These gifts are tax deductible, and are often matched by employers and corporations through matching gift programs. Immanuel Bible Church also significantly underwrites the school ministry through the yearly provision of free classroom and office space, utilities, and custodial support. Without this help and the gifts from parents and friends, tuition rates would be much higher.

Immanuel Christian School does have a financial aid program for families demonstrating genuine financial need. Full disclosure of income, expenses, assets and liabilities is required when aid is requested, including a copy of a current federal tax return with all supporting schedules. Our financial aid should not be construed as a scholarship program based on academic merit. It is solely based upon demonstrated financial need. Financial aid is limited to a maximum of 50% of the net tuition due after application of any discount.

Financial aid applications will be processed initially by FACTS, our tuition management service, through their Grant & Aid Assessment program. This will be

a confidential financial analysis. Applications are available from the school office or

you may apply directly through the FACTS website. Applications are due to FACTS by April 18th. There is a $20 processing fee for this service.

FACTS will make a recommendation based on parameters provided to them by the ICS School Board. The School Board will make a final determination in May before

the second tuition payment is due in June. Financial aid applications submitted and processed after April 18th will be reviewed by the school board in August. Until a financial aid application is approved, full monthly tuition is due. Exceptions may be granted on an individual basis. Returning families interested in continuing to receive aid must re-apply each year. Families approved for financial aid will have their June payment adjusted to compensate for the full monthly tuition paid in March. Please understand that there is no guarantee that assistance will be approved or continued at the same level each year.

This is a concept that many Christian schools have used to involve parents more consistently in the life of the school. It helps every parent to take ownership in the ministry of Immanuel Christian School, to see the school in a practical and personal way, and to stand shoulder to shoulder with other parents in service activities. At the same time it extends tuition dollars by having volunteers perform some tasks that might otherwise have to be paid for through professional services.

The plan requires a total annual service-hours per family of 30 hours. Single-parent families will be required to fulfill half the number of service-hours. Parents who simply cannot give the time are required to pay a fee at the rate of $10 per hour. Parents are given a form to track their own service-hours and to report them to the school office once each semester. Work-hours project ideas are solicited from the school board, PTF Committee, administration, and faculty and staff in an effort to help parents anticipate the ways they will be able to meet this requirement.

Immanuel Christian School does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national, or ethnic origin in its administration of financial aid, admissions, or school policies.
