The Reverend John A. Reddington Scholarship Fund was established under the Will of Father John Reddington to provide for Catholic education at any level and for college education (nondenominational) for residents of the Diocese of Rochester. A scholarship committee exists to review all applications and to select individuals to receive scholarship grants.
There is no limit on the number of times a student may apply for a scholarship. Scholarships are not automatically renewed each year. Students must reapply annually.
The Scholarship Fund is a needs-based fund, but the student must be performing to his/her potential. This past spring 117 students did apply for the scholarship and 106 applicants were assisted. This is not a large fund so scholarships will be an average range of $100.00 to $500.00 per year.
The deadline for all forms to be submitted is April 30 as per the Genesee Valley Trust Company with no exceptions.
Please view and/or print out the attached form for more information and the application.
The Family Ambassador Program encourages families to provide referrals to any one of the 18 Diocese of Rochester Catholic Schools. It is an opportunity for more of our community to discover the difference of a transformative, faith-based education.
Both the referral family and newly enrolled family will receive a $500 tuition credit when the brand-new family joins any of the 18 Diocese of Rochester Catholic Schools.
