In our attempts to keep tuition affordable, we offer many opportunities to help reduce the cost of tuition. See the options below and review the strategies for making FRCS more financially accessible
FRCS financially partners with families enrolled in our full-time programs to provide a Christ-centered education through our tuition assistance program.
To apply for tuition assistance, you must first apply for full-time enrollment at FRCS then complete the Financial Aid Application through the FAST system. There is a non-refundable fee of $60 for the FAST application.
Financial Aid is only available for students enrolled in kindergarten (both part-time and full-time) and full-time students in grades 1-12. Unfortunately, we cannot offer tuition assistance for preschool, pre-kindergarten, or part-time junior/senior high students at this time.
To apply for an award, you will need to submit your most recent completed and filed tax forms, as well as complete the online application for admission.
Upon receiving tuition assistance, recipients are required to attend a 10-week Financial Peace University (FPU) course sponsored by Front Range Christian School. The course is offered at least once each school year.
Who: For new, incoming students grades 9-12. Eligible students must have at least a 3.7 cumulative GPA from 7th grade to the present.
What: A $1000 tuition scholarship
When: Students must complete their enrollment application and scholarship application by July 1.
Why: (1) To encourage and recognize academic achievement and good character in the Front Range Christian School community and (2) to continually attract excellent students to Front Range Christian School.
How: Interested students must apply online, which includes two references (one character, the other academic), a four-part essay, and a transcript (which should be included with their application for enrollment). The four-part essay will ask the student to respond to each of the four questions:
- What are your personal interests beyond the classroom?
- What leadership qualities do you consider as personal strengths?
- What do you believe you can contribute to the student body at Front Range Christian School?
- What are your goals beyond high school?
Applications will be evaluated based on the following criterion:
- Does this student show excellent academic ability and intellectual curiosity?
- Does this student display good character?
- What can this student contribute to FRCS?
- Is this student well-rounded?
Applicants will be notified of their award no later than August 1.
Front Range Christian School sells merchant retailer certificates through RaiseRight (formerly Scrip) to FRCS families to reduce tuition costs for families by allocating a portion of money spent for normal, weekly living expenses: food, clothing, dining, and even gifts!
FRCS families may designate the credit received from this program to their tuition account, another specific tuition account, or to the general education fund at Front Range Christian. Anyone can purchase certificates (parents, grandparents, and friends) and designate a particular family’s tuition account.
