The Delmarva Christian High School board is waiving the $125 student application fee to those families willing to make an early commitment to Delmarva Christian High School.

Starting immediately, applications postmarked between Aug. 20, 2008, and Jan. 31, 2009, for the 2009-10 school year, will not be required to include the $125 student application fee.

Applications already received for next school year will receive a credit.

“The board is to be commended for recognizing that many families, in spite of the current economic situation, desire their children to be educated in an environment that reinforces their Christian family values,” said Principal Scott Kemerling.

“This savings should alleviate some of their financial investment.”

The application fee will be reinstated after Jan. 31. Submission of a nonrefundable $125 application fee is required from Feb. 1 to April 30, a nonrefundable $250 application fee from May 1 to May 31, and a nonrefundable $375 application fee from June 1 to June 30.

The nonrefundable application fee jumps to $500 after June 30.

Delmarva Christian High School provides a Christ-centered education delivered by certified teachers for students in grades 9 through 12. The school mission is to train students spiritually, academically and physically to know and accomplish God’s will.
