Enroll in the Jon Peterson Special Needs Scholarship Today!

In 2012, the state of Ohio began the Jon Peterson Special Needs Scholarship Program (JPSN). This program uses tax dollars to allow students with learning disabilities to receive services from an Ohio Department of Education approved provider.

North Coast Tutoring Services has been a provider to the Jon Peterson Scholarship since its inception. We provide academic services to students according to the needs list on their IEPs. In 2015, NCTS helped get the scholarship increased from $20,000 annually to $27,000.

Families are able to apply for the Jon Peterson Special Needs Scholarship twice a year. The new enrollment period is October 1st – November 15th.
