FBCS is pleased to share the following information about the state-funded EdChoice Scholarship Program. Both the EdChoice Scholarship for low-performing schools and the EdChoice Expansion income-based scholarship are open for enrollment. Your student must be accepted and completely enrolled in FBCS to apply for the scholarship. If you meet the qualifications, the EdChoice Scholarship will award up to $5500 per student for K-8 and $7500 per student for 9-12. The scholarship program has two different aspects. Please read carefully to see if you qualify for either. You may also contact the school office at (440) 458-5185 with any questions.
