There are two types of scholarships available and students may apply for either or both.
The St. Stephen’s Scholarship:
St. Stephen's Episcopal School offers limited scholarships to enrolled students on the basis of economic need as determined by the Scholarship Committee of the Board of Directors. Application for scholarships is done through the FACTS tuition management company (www.factsmgt.com or www.factstuitionaid.com). The maximum award is 50% of the student’s tuition.
The Shirley B. McArthur Memorial Scholarship:
The Shirley Beth McArthur Memorial Scholarship is a merit based scholarship awarded to new or existing students grades 3rd-8th, who demonstrate a good academic record, and a record of servant leadership congruent with our school honor code and core values. This scholarship is designed to attract and keep the most promising scholars and leaders in the St. Stephen’s School community. McArthur Scholars are expected to embody the principles of servant leadership as exemplified by the life of Shirley Beth McArthur, a founding member of our school. McArthur Scholars are also expected to maintain a “B” or better grade point average and daily demonstrate the school’s mission statement, be actively involved in the life of the school, and to exercise positive leadership inside and outside the classroom. The maximum award is 50% of the student’s tuition.
