Thanks to a generous bequest, and after months of study, the Finance Council of Saint Rita Parish is excited to now offer current and prospective students an opportunity to be awarded a scholarship to attend our day school.
"We are excited to now offer students, both current and prospective, an opportunity to make private, Catholic education an attainable possibility." says Jim Rallo, father of five Saint Rita School alumni and a member of Saint Rita's Finance Council. "Being able to recognize and reward students and families for both their academic achievements and their dedication to service and life-long learning is at the heart of what makes Saint Rita School different."
The Saint Rita Merit Scholarship is the first of its kind offered by a private elementary school, basing its criteria not just on financial need, but also on the merit and quality of the student. No other private, Catholic elementary school in the diocese currently offers this. "We are starting something special here," says Fr. Burchell, former Pastor of Saint Rita Parish, "We are investing in the most important resource we have--our young students."
