Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary Student’s children K-12 Christian Education Tuition Fund Need: Some of our students have school-aged children who may be best educated if enrolled, depending on the specific needs of the children, in Reformed Christian Day School or Reformed Home School curricula approved by the Christian education tuition fund committee. The seminary scholarship fund does not permit financing this part of a student’s costs. There is no provision in the seminary operating budget for this contingency. Mandate: The Board of Trustees at its August, 2009 meeting requested the establishment of a tuition assistance fund to be used for the Christian Education of seminary students’ children. Implementation: This fund is available and open as of January 12, 2010. Gifts received into this fund will be used exclusively for tuition payments for committee approved kindergarten through twelfth grade Reformed Christian education. Gifts may be sent to Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary 2965 leonard Street NE, Grand Rapids, MI 49525. Please indicate on the check memo line that the gift is for the K- 12 Christian education tuition fund. Students needing this assistance will need to apply using the attached form. The decisions for allocating these funds will be made by a Board Appointed committee of three.

The resources of this fund come entirely from outside of the PRTS budget.
