Catholic Education Foundation (CEF)

CEF’s mission is to provide tuition assistance to families meeting specific income parameters. CEF is managed by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. Current 8th graders receiving CEF funding should apply through their Catholic elementary school. For students not attending a local Catholic school and meet eligibility guidelines, follow the instructions, make an appointment with CEF, complete the application, and attach the 1040 2022, and bring it to your appointment. Feel free to contact Mr. Frantela should you have any questions or need some assistance, sfrantela@sbhsvta.org.

While Saint Bonaventure High School supports and works with CEF, SBHS is not responsible for CEF awards, deadlines, applications, etc.
