Grant & Aid:

Families needing additional tuition assistance may apply for such through FACTS Grant & Aid found in the FACTS Family Portal. A student must apply and be accepted to St. Anthony of Padua before tuition assistance will be applied. If future tuition assistance is needed, the financial aid committee will meet to determine each student’s eligibility. In order to be considered for further assistance, the parent(s), and guardians will need to provide three current paycheck stubs and the latest W-2. Every family must contribute toward their child's tuition.

*Scholarships are provided by benefactors of our school as well as through grants and subsidies from our Diocese and Parish.

Lunch Program:

St. Anthony participates in the SC Department of Education Food Service Program. Therefore, the prices are determined in consultation with the SC State Department. During the 2023-2024 school year, all St. Anthony students will continue to receive free breakfast, lunch, and late stay snack.
