Accepted Scholarships

Step Up for Students Scholarships

Step up for Students offers various scholarships.  The following are some of the scholarships offered: 

  • Financial -  For the 2021-22 school year, a family of four could have an income of up to $99,375 annually to be eligible for a private school scholarship. The  scholarship award is based on where the student lives and their grade level.  https://www.stepupforstudents.org/wp-content/uploads/2021-22-Income-Based-Scholarship-Amounts.pdf 
  • Family Empowerment Scholarship for Students with Unique Abilities (formerly Gardiner) -  is different than  other state scholarships in that it allows parents to personalize the  education of their children with unique abilities by directing money  toward a combination of programs and approved providers. These include  schools, therapists, specialists, curriculum, technology – even a  college savings account. FAQ: https://www.stepupforstudents.org/wp-content/uploads/FES-Gardiner-FAQ.pdf 
  • Victims of Bullying -  The Hope Scholarship gives public school parents options to place their child in an environment where their child feels safe. 
  • Struggling Readers -  Is your child in public school grades 3-5 having trouble reading? If so, the Reading Scholarship can help.

McKay Scholarships

As of June 30, 2022, the McKay Scholarship Program will no longer exist. For the 2022-2023 school year, students who have been receiving the McKay Scholarship to attend a private school will be transferred to the Family Empowerment Scholarship for Students with Unique Abilities, or FES-UA. This transition will provide families with access to a personal Education Savings Account, or ESA, empowering you to further tailor the use of scholarship funds for your child’s unique educational needs
