Dear Families,
Believe it or not, planning for the 2023-2024 school year is well under way. The pandemic is in the rearview mirror and our standardized test scores continue to outperform our public, and many of our private school peers. Indeed, approximately 75% of our elementary students are reading and doing math at proficient levels, and many of those students are achieving scores that exceed nationwide expectations in both math and reading. Sadly, we continue to hear reports that our local public schools are struggling to reach 20% of students who score at or above proficient levels. Our success is truly a testament to you, and the great job our teachers are doing every day in our classrooms.
One of the challenges we continue to face is the rising cost of educating our students. Insurance rates, pension plan expenses, curriculum materials and maintenance expenses continue to increase. In consideration of this fact, I'm writing to you today to remind you to apply for Diocesan financial aid for next year. You can begin the process here. https://online.factsmgt.com/signin/3HRDF
Some other possible sources of financial aid include your local parish priest. If you attend another Catholic Church in Providence, your pastor may be willing to offer a scholarship to your student. Blessed Sacrament Parish also offers funds from the Parish Endowment Fund. The application can be found here: https://www.
Remember, you must complete and verify the FACTS Financial Aid application to be considered for the Parish Endowment award.
And finally, if you have an incoming middle school student (Grades 6, 7, & 8), The RI Foundation offers scholarships to local families wishing to send their student to private school. We have had several families in recent years get sizable scholarships from the Foundation. Their application can be found here: https://www.
Good Luck and don't hesitate to reach out if you need any help.
Stay Well,
Mr. Weber, Principal
Blessed Sacrament School
