As we seek to enrich the Rosary student body by offering a Rosary education to all girls in the Fox Valley Area, we know that these scholarships are necessary. We are also aware that we must balance our operating costs and increases in salaries as we seek to attract and hire the most qualified faculty. Therefore, if you qualify for a scholarship, please consider making a tax deductible donation in that amount to help fund these scholarships and close the gap between tuition and the actual cost of educating a Rosary Royal.

If you have any questions, please contact Head of School, Amy McMahon at amcmahon@rosaryhs.com or Business Manager, Cindy Ybarra at cybarra@rosaryhs.com.
