Bison Scholarship Applications: Apply for Bison Fund
Pre-applications for new scholarships are officially open through March 31st. It is important to have your taxes filed early to receive Bison Scholarships and St. John Tuition Assistance.
St. John Tuition Assistance
The Board of Christian Education is aware that tuition may cause a financial hardship beyond what the Bison Fund is able to offer. Therefore, a St. John Tuition Assistance Program is available under the direction of the Tuition Assistance Committee to aid in tuition cost for children entering grades K-8.
