Financial Assistance
At the beginning of the year, most fees are added to every student's account regardless of waiver status. All families must complete the Family Income Information Form (FIIF) for each student attending Jones, regardless of whether you are applying or not applying. Families applying for the waiver, please do not pay fees until the FIIF is processed by the end of the first semester (November). The fee waiver is applied on a year-to-year basis and cannot be applied to fees from a previous year(s).

What is the Family Income Information Form?
The purpose of this form is for CPS to obtain information about families’ income to determine school funding. CPS and your school may receive additional funding based on the number of low-income families enrolled. This form is used to assess the waiver eligibility for each family.
