Tuition & Fees
Investing in education is a significant decision for families, and we strive to make it as transparent and manageable as possible. We believe that the life-long values we instill here at SJS, along with the faith-based education offered, are invaluable investments in your student's future.
Eligibility for In-Parish Tuition will be determined by the parish office in May in which you are registered.
Eligibility includes, but is not limited to:
- To be registered in one of the following parishes: St. Joseph in Issaquah, Our Lady of Sorrows in Snoqualmie, or Mary Queen of Peace in Sammamish.
- Your family must complete an annual stewardship card for your registered parish and fulfill the financial commitment.
- Regularly participate in weekly mass.
Tuition Assistance:
We are thrilled to be able to offer financial aid programs, scholarships, payment plans and tuition assistance to ensure that our Catholic education remains inclusive and affordable.
For the 2024-25 school year, we will be offering a $5,000 scholarship to new middle school applicants that demonstrate academic excellence. Qualifiers must meet grade level subject standards and score in the 75th percentile in MAP or equivalent testing.
- One $5,000 awarded per family, limit 3 scholarships awarded per year.
- Preference is given to parishioners at St. Joseph, Mary Queen of Peace or Our Lady of Sorrows who are new to SJS.
To apply, students must submit a short essay (<500 words) on how faith shapes their life and what they hope to encounter in our SJS community. Applicants must submit their essay to Principal Shauna Richards at srichards@sjsissaquah.org with the subject "SOAR Middle School Scholarship."
If you have any questions or if you would like assistance in exploring our financial options, please visit our Tuition Assistance Page or contact Business Manager Jill Orth (business@sjsissaquah.org).
