The largest in Mc Veytown is Gospel Light School with 35 students. The largest within 12 miles is Belleville Mennonite School with 200 students.
Which Mc Veytown private schools take EITC / OSTC?
1 of the 20 schools on this page is on the state’s official OSTC list, 0 of them in Mc Veytown itself. It is marked with a green check and listed first in each group. Schools marked “OSTC school” here appear on the Department of Education’s list of schools that accept Opportunity Scholarship (OSTC) students in 2026-27: 398 private schools, reported by the schools themselves (the Department does not audit it). Pennsylvania keeps no list for EITC scholarships, so a school without the mark may still take EITC students. Ask the school which scholarship organizations it works with.
Will EITC / OSTC cover the whole tuition bill?
Sometimes, but do not count on it. Each scholarship organization sets its award; Opportunity Scholarships go up to $8,500, or $15,000 for a student with a disability, and schools set their own prices. Ask each school for tuition plus fees, then use the calculator on this page to see what is left for you to pay.
