Yearly tuition only covers a portion of the cost of educating your child at St. Paul the Apostle. The total cost to educate each child is $8,000 annually. To help defray costs the parish subsidizes a large portion of the total cost in addition to our yearly fundraising and our Donnelly Endowment. We encourage all families to be faithful stewards by regular use of the parish offertory envelopes or online giving. School tuition and student fees are set annually by the St. Paul the Apostle Board of Education. A tuition contract is sent home after the first of the year. All tuition payments are made online through School Admin.
If at the end of June, the tuition contract has not been met, students may not be registered for the next school year unless arrangements have been made in writing to the principal for the past due tuition.
