Choice Scholarships (Vouchers)

Significant changes were made to the Indiana choice scholarship program in 2023, expanding the program to include more families. The household income limits were increased to 400% of the federal free/reduced lunch program which significantly increased household income limits for participation in the Choice Scholarship and SGO programs.

Please contact Josh Knoedler for more information!

SGO Scholarships

The CCS Scholarship Program (SGO’s) is made possible through generous donations from friends of Colonial Christian School. SGO scholarships are primarily designed for our preschool students (who do not qualify for choice scholarships).

iCare Scholarships

iCare scholarships are available for families who have financial needs after considering choice scholarships or SGOs.

Please contact Josh Knoedler for more information on these scholarships!
