Escambia Christian School is a participating school in the Step Up for Students Scholarship. Step Up For Students is an initiative of the Florida Tax Credit (FTC) Scholarship Program. The innovative program provides K-12 education scholarships for qualifying low-income students who are entering kindergarten or first grade or attended public school the previous year. The scholarships give low-income parents the opportunity to choose the K-12 school that best meets their children’s needs. For the school year 2011-2012 the scholarships cover up to $4,011 for private school tuition and books or up to $500 in transportation costs to an out-of-district public school.

You may qualify for a scholarship if:

Your child is entering 2nd through 12th grade and attended a Florida public school for the entire previous school year OR is entering Kindergarten or 1st grade.

Your household income is at or below the amount shown on the income guidelines.
