Description: Since opening our doors in 1981, Logos School has not turned away one family unable to afford the entire tuition. RTP was established by Logos to support families who wish to provide their children with a Christian education, but need financial assistance to do so. Logos does not have an endowment or scholarship money. All of the reduced tuition we grant comes directly from our budget, that is, from employee salaries. We are committed to giving sacrificially so that tuition is within reach.

Policy: RTP is need-based (i.e. financial need) rather than merit (i.e. grades). RTP awards are made yearly. A new application must be submitted every year.  Families on RTP volunteer in the school, and log their hours.  

Procedure: 

1. Check with your church’s Christian education fund, and pursue other sources of assistance, such as grandparents, who are often happy to contribute.
2. Fill out a Logos RTP application (here) which includes basic financial info. 
3. Participate in our RTP Volunteer Program (all family members may participate) and log hours in FACTS. Your help as a volunteer reduces the school’s expenses and makes tuition reduction possible going forward.
   1. Contact Mrs. Holly Berry, the volunteer coordinator.  She will discuss with families receiving RTP their volunteer hour goal, and possible slots that need to be filled.
   2. Log volunteer hours in FACTS.  Here’s a two-minute video that demonstrates how to log volunteer hours in FACTS:  Logging RTP Hours
