St. Francis Xavier School

Can a voucher be used at St. Francis Xavier School?

Yes, if the school is taking scholarship students this year. Ohio's state school directory (OEDS) lists St. Francis Xavier School (IRN 060954) as a chartered nonpublic school, the kind that can enroll EdChoice, EdChoice Expansion and Cleveland Scholarship students. Most families near Medina use EdChoice Expansion, which pays up to $6,166 for grades K-8 for 2026-27 and tapers above 450% of poverty; a child who lives in the Cleveland district would bring a Cleveland Scholarship instead.

Since the school enrolls pre-K, ask whether its preschool takes the Ohio Preschool Program or publicly funded child care through your county Job and Family Services office. The vouchers begin at kindergarten.

As a Catholic school in the Diocese of Cleveland, families can ask here about Diocesan Tuition Assistance, the school's Angel Scholarship application and parish aid, and high school families about the diocese's named special scholarships.

What should we ask St. Francis Xavier School before we enroll?

1. Will you file a Cleveland Scholarship or an EdChoice application for my child for 2026-27, and are seats open in that grade?
2. Once the voucher is applied, what do we still owe, and what do registration, books, devices and uniforms add?
3. Do you discount for siblings or members, award need-based aid, or receive money from a tax-credit SGO?
4. Which documents do you need from us to file the application, and when?
5. Does your preschool accept the Ohio Preschool Program or child care subsidy?
