      1. FMH participates in Pennsylvania’s Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program (EITC) via Faith Builders Scholarship Services. This program allows certain businesses to channel their tax money to participating organizations of their choice. Patrons living in low-achieving school districts may qualify for additional (OSTC) funds. For more information, please visit the Faith Builders website or contact the school office. Interested patrons need to apply before November 1st of each year.
      2. Families who demonstrate financial need beyond their awarded EITC funds may qualify for Student Aid assistance. Patrons interested in a Student Aid application or additional information shall contact the school office.
