We invite all families to explore our financial assistance options to help make a Notre Dame education accessible for every child.

Recognizing the financial commitment our families make to provide their children an excellent education at Notre Dame Elementary and Middle School, we make every effort to provide need-based assistance to families with demonstrated need. Notre Dame Schools participates in the EdChoice Scholarship Program available from the Ohio Department of Education and families can apply for additional support from Notre Dame Schools and the Cleveland Diocese through FACTS Grant & Aid.
