The Northwest Ohio Scholarship Fund along with National
School Choice Week are presenting a 2019-2020 School Choice
School Fair for Grades K-8 on Saturday, January 26 from
10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. at the Franciscan Center, located
on the campus of Lourdes University, at 6832 Convent
Boulevard. Interested families can learn about the
different educational options available in Northwest Ohio
including private schools, charter schools and homeschooling
as well as tuition scholarships.
Representatives from
participating schools and homeschooling co-ops will have
tables with informational materials to share. Parents will
also have an opportunity to learn about the scholarships
available for private education including the EdChoice
Scholarship Program and the Northwest Ohio Scholarship
Fund.
EdChoice scholarships
provide students from underperforming schools as well as
students in grades K-5 from low income households the
opportunity to attend participating private schools. The
Northwest Ohio Scholarship Fund awards scholarship
assistance for low-income students who reside in one of 19
counties in Northwest Ohio.
While parents are learning about schools and scholarships,
children can participate in fun activities and
entertainment. Snacks and drinks will be available. Parking
and admission are free.
"National School Choice
Week is the perfect time for parents to search for new or
different schools for their children," said Andrew
Campanella, president of National School Choice Week. "By
planning a school fair and inviting all different types of
schools to participate, the Northwest Ohio Scholarship Fund
is bringing educational opportunity one step closer to even
more Buckeye State families. We could not be happier that
they chose to plan this helpful fair during National School
Choice Week, and we encourage families to attend and
discover their options."
