K-8th

Tuition for the 2010/2011 school year:

Tuition is paid through TMS (Tuition Management Systems) by the 10th of each monthly, over 11 months, starting in July.

Book and Material Fee, per student:  

Kindergarten, $125 --  Elementary, $150
(Added to your total tuition amount)

Registration Fee, per Student, new & returning students  $100

Application Fee, per student, new students only  $30

A $300 per student deposit is due with your registration. This deposit covers the $100 registration fee (returning and new students), the $30 application fee (new students only, including all kindergarteners) with all remaining monies applied toward your tuition. At the end of the enrollment period, if your child has not been accepted into St. Joseph School, you will receive a refund of all monies minus the $30 application fee. If your child has been accepted into St. Joseph School and you withdraw for any reason, no monies will be refunded. All checks are deposited when received.

Parishioner status is determined by the parish office in which you are registered. Parishioners must be registered at St. Joseph Parish, Holy Innocents, or Mary, Queen of Peace Parish. Parishioners must meet their parish’s criteria for parishioner status, have a current Sacrificial Giving card on file and make a good faith effort to keep their Sacrificial Giving commitment through the year, and contribute regularly to the life of the parish. For financial subsidy purposes, families registered in parishes other than St. Joseph are asked to remain registered and active in that parish through the end of the school year. Please contact your parish office to determine your parishioner status.

Additional fees beyond those covered by the tuition will be incurred during the academic year. These include, but are not limited to, Extended Care (before/after school care), bus transportation, milk, extra-curricular activities, CYO sports, field trips, pizza days, class auction project, field day, and charges for volunteer hours not fulfilled. Some of these costs will be billed by the school on a monthly statement.

Financial Aid is available for families in need from St. Joseph School and through the Archdiocesan Fulcrum Foundation. Financial aid forms are due to the school office by February 12, 2010. Decisions are made based on need and families are notified in June. All financial aid applicants are kept confidential. Acceptance to St. Joseph School is made independent of financial need.

Withdrawal Prior to the Start of School Registration fees and tuition paid at registration are deposited upon receipt and are not refundable after acceptance of your student. Submittal of your registration contract constitutes acceptance to St. Joseph School for families that are re-enrolling. If you withdraw after April 10, you are responsible for the tuition portion based on the table below. For example, if notice is given on April 11 that your student will not be attending St. Joseph School in the fall, you will owe 30% of tuition -- even though your student has not yet attended classes. All monies owed will be due upon notification of withdrawal. St. Joseph School will not forward records for students until all outstanding balances have been paid (tuition, annual fund, and/or fundraising).

Prorating of Tuition In Case of Late Admission  Responsibility for tuition for students admitted after the start of the school year is only for the academic period during which they attend St. Joseph School. The prorated amount will be determined by St. Joseph School and is non-negotiable.
