The statewide parental choice school tuition voucher program opens Feb. 1.
St. Francis Xavier Catholic School System has successfully participated in the Wisconsin Parental Choice Program (WPCP) since 2013. Today more than 265 students attend Xavier Catholic Schools tuition-free. This opportunity is open to any family who meets residence and income requirements. For many of these families it has been life-changing.
We encourage all those families of school-aged children to apply for one of the vouchers, with which you will have the opportunity to attend one of our Xavier Catholic schools, at no base tuition charge. This voucher is easily renewable every year until graduation. The parent application for the Wisconsin Parental Choice Program and more information can be found on the Wisconsin Dept. of Public Instruction website. The income limit for a married family of 5 can make up to an Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) of $74,496.
