Enrollment Form

Grace participates in both the Milwaukee Parental Choice Program (MPCP) and the WI Parental Choice Program (WPCP). See below for details.

Grace Lutheran congregation members support the school through the budget to reduce the tuition cost to families. The tuition paid by families is a fraction of the $8,300 actual annual cost per student.

Grace strives to offer an education that is academically excellent, rich in technology integration, and taught by highly skilled Christian teachers, yet at an affordable level for all families. Applications for tuition assistance were due in April for the 2025-2026 school year.

Grace uses FACTS to partner with families for monthly tuition payments. Families new to Grace and existing families choosing to start a FACTS monthly payment plan should follow the following website: https://online.factsmgt.com/signin/3ZLZD

Raise Right is a tuition reduction incentive program that reduces your out-of-pocket tuition through purchases made on everyday items using gift cards offered through Grace. Grace families earning Raise Right credits reduced their tuition by an average of more than $600 last year by using Raise Right for everyday purchases such as gas and groceries. Some save more than $1,000! Using Raise Right for special purchases such as home improvements, Christmas/Birthday gifts, vacations, entertainment, clothing, and electronics can help you earn even more! Go to Raise Right to enroll. Email Mrs. Winkelmann with questions.

The Department of Public Instruction generates Accountability Report Cards for all publicly funded schools and districts in the state. Report cards for private schools participating in the Private School Choice Programs were first required for the 2015-2016 school year. 2016-2017 is the first year that private school participating in the Choice Program can receive overall scores or ratings.

DPI produces two versions of each Report Card: one labeled “School Report Card” click here and lengthier, detailed version labeled, “School Report Card Detail” click here. Both versions can be accessed online along with resources that explain the report cards, click here to view. While our school has received a Private School – Choice Students Report Card that focuses only on students in participating in the Choice program that elected to take the exam. Schools that did not have sufficient data to calculate an accountability score or rating will see “NR-Data” in the top left corner. This can occur if there are too few choice students in the school.

The legislative requirements to produce these reports cards allow choice schools to opt-in to receive a report card for all students attending the private school. We have chosen to not opt into the Private School Report Card at this time and will continue to evaluate in the future. As required by our participation in MCPC and WCPC, click below to view the one-page School Report Card for Grace Lutheran School and a list of educational options.
