TheEducation Commissionof St. Nicholas School established a goal at the beginning of School Year 2016-17 to increase enrollment. That year, we began to accept Indiana Choice Scholarship Vouchers in an effort to support non-parishioner families who cannot afford the tuition cost. Now most families, whether parishioners or not, can qualify for the Choice Scholarship, which covers all of their school tuition and book costs. Bringing in new families is our evangelization effort to welcome all to be a part of our forefathers' dream to have a thriving Catholic School. Come join us as ourHeritage Project details the steps that will be taken by the St. Nicholas Parish Community as we continue to live our forefathers' dream!
Considering St. Nicholas School?
Parents who are considering St. Nicholas School as an educational choice for their children can arrange a tour by contacting our main office at 812-623-2348 or e-mail us at[email protected]. We will arrange for the student to shadow in the classroom for a full or half day. Drop off/pick-up information will be provided, along with lunch options and details. Our Principal, Mr. Eric Feller and the prospective student's teacher will interview the family to ensure that St. Nicholas is the best fit for the student.
