Saint Athanasius School

SEAT

Through the generosity of our benefactors, Saint Athanasius School created the Saint Athanasius Education Assistance Trust (SEAT) to be used for tuition assistance grants.

As a result of SEAT, Saint A is able to provide assistance to qualifying existing or new Saint A students in grades K-8. We are very excited to provide additional support to families choosing Saint A. With the benefit of SEAT we hope tuition will never be a hindrance to choosing Saint A for a quality education.

The Saint Athanasius Endowment Committee governs and administer SEAT, including establishing criteria for aid and other guidelines. A brief description of the guidelines are provided below. Importantly, the awarding of grants to individual families is made by the Principal of Saint Athanasius and no family-specific confidential information is shared outside of the Saint Athanasius administration. As such, family privacy is ensured.
