Local Tuition Assistance Programs
Grocery Certificate Program
This program is hosted by Mary Queen of Apostles School. Everyone can participate and there is no extra cost to you. You are encouraged to recruit friends and relatives to adopt your children. Please register your “recruits” using this form.
Each of your recruits will receive a key tag with your child’s ID number. Adopting families will receive periodic correspondence from our school and students. Grocery certificates are available in the school offices, parish offices of St. Margaret Mary, Mount St. Peter, and St. Joseph, as well as the service desks of Lower Burrell Community Market, New Kensington’s Giant Eagle and Golden Dawn. Simply go to one of these locations and purchase Mary Queen of Apostles School grocery certificates using cash or a check made payable to MQA School. Pay for your purchases using the grocery certificates.
Just a reminder, certificates purchased for Giant Eagle can be used for pharmacy, video rental/sales, retail gift card and gasoline purchases. This program continues year round.
Scrip Program
This allows participants to purchase gift cards from national and local retailers. Orders must be received no later than 9:00 a.m. on Wednesdays. Deliveries will be the following Wednesday.
Payment must be included with your order and no phone orders will be accepted. Please plan ahead and take into consideration special circumstances that may delay shipments – holiday closings, school vacation, weather, etc.
You can choose whether to have your order sent home via your child or it can be kept at the school office for pick up. No gift cards will be mailed. This program continues year round.

Dear Parents/Guardians:
I have made every effort to select fundraisers that are profitable, manageable and beneficial to your family. Please note that all checks submitted for fundraisers should be made to MQA School unless otherwise noted. Also, checks returned from the bank are subject to a $10 service charge in addition to the check amount. f you have any questions concerning our tuition credit earning programs, please feel free to contact me.
