The Income Eligibility Guidelines for School Choice vouchers increased for the 2024-2025 school year. You can access that information through this link. Income Eligibility Guidelines 2024-2025

Remember, these numbers are based on your family's adjusted gross income. More Hoosier families than ever qualify for School Choice vouchers!

• Multi-Child Tuition Discount Ends -

Beginning with the 2024-2025 school year, OLG Parish will no longer offer a multi-child discount. The reason? Because a student's School Choice voucher covers most if not all tuition, this eliminates the need for the parish to absorb the extra $500 per second, third, fourth, or additional child.

Most families will not see a significant difference in the 2024-2025 tuition bill. The exception is for large families who reside in the Center Grove school district.

Fear not. Thanks to our Institute for Quality Education Scholarships, we can offer help for large families that indicate a financial need and have children entering Kindergarten or higher grade levels. Please contact Jan McManus at jmcmanus@ol-g.org or Fran Reiley at fran@olgreenwood.org for more information.

Note: the multi-child discount did not apply towards pre-school or pre-Kindergarten students. Vouchers are not applicable to pre-school age children.
