Archbishop Wood High School makes tuition assistance available to current students through two special programs:

• Scrip Grants: Families purchase scrip certificates for a variety of local food markets and receive a five percent voucher that is applied directly to the student's current tuition account.
• Presidential Grants: Tuition grants are made available through the generosity of alumni and friends of the school to assist families struggling to meet tuition expenses. Application is made through the President's Office and requires financial documentation, satisfactory academic/behavior performance, and involvement in school activities/sports.
