In the event that a family leaves Saint Leander School, FACE or BASIC Fund Scholarship funds are transferable to other Catholic schools in the Oakland Diocese.
Should a family transfer to a school outside of the Diocesan system, future payments are forfeited. Families never receive a direct cash payment from FACE, BASIC Fund and/or other scholarship/grant programs.
