2014-2015 Preschool Term Hagenbuch Scholarship Application General Information

Full tuition for the 2014-2015 pre-kindergarten preschool term at Jack and Jill Preschool is $980. Hagenbuch scholarships are awarded only to children who have already been registered for a pre-kindergarten class for the upcoming term. (Note: the term registered is defined as registration form being completed and returned along with the $40 or $50 non-refundable registration fee to Jack and Jill Preschool). The minimum amount of tuition that a family must pay for their child to attend Jack and Jill is $50; this is considered a “good faith” investment in their child’s preschool education. Scholarship amounts are based on a sliding scale from that $50 investment point.

Scholarships are awarded based on financial need, social need, and spiritual need. Scholarship decisions are made by the Hagenbuch Scholarship Committee which may be made up of members of the Jack and Jill Preschool Board, along with other committee members who are chosen because of their ability to contribute their expertise to the committee.

This committee meets every spring to review any scholarship requests. They may meet at additional times during the year if the need arises. It is the Scholarship Committee’s discretion to decide the amount of money to be given to any family who applies for a scholarship. The funds available for a scholarship during any term vary and are based on any interest accrued from the Hagenbuch Scholarship Account at Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church. As such, the amount of money available toward any years’ scholarship will vary. This amount may or may not be equal to the amount requested by a family. The decisions of this committee are final.

Due to the age of the children who receive the scholarship(s), the names, addresses, and other personal information are kept private and confidential from the rest of the Jack and Jill Preschool Board and from the general public.

Scholarship applications must be returned to Jack and Jill Preschool Director before June30, 2013 in order to be considered by the scholarship committee for a full term scholarship. The application must be complete and include all requested information in order to be considered by the committee. If there are no scholarship requests, the monies available will stay in the Hagenbuch Scholarship Account until they are needed.
Submission of a scholarship application implies that the family agrees to the conditions listed above.
