Tuition and Fees
Tuition rates and fees for St. George Catholic School is established annually by the administration in consultation with the School and Parish Finance Committees with the approval of the Pastor. St. George Catholic School has three tuition rates: IFS (Identified Financial Steward), NIFS (Non-Identified Financial Steward) and non-Catholic. The IFS tuition rate is for registered parishioners who are identified as financial stewards and active parishioners of St. George Parish. The NIFS tuition rate applies to all other Catholic families who are not identified as financial stewards as deemed by St. George Parish and/or who are members of other parishes.
School fees, in addition to tuition, include a registration fee, a student fee, which covers a portion of the cost of books, other school curriculum related expenses and Home and School Association dues and a technology fee. A per family building fee is assessed annually to cover current and future capital improvement projects. Eighth grade students are assessed an additional fee to cover the cost of special activities. A student’s registration is not considered complete until their registration fee is paid. Registration fees are non-refundable. Students with delinquent tuition may not re-register for the following school year until all financial obligations are fulfilled.
There are two options for payment of tuition through the FACTS Family Portal:
- Pre-payment of tuition in its entirety in May
- Tuition payment plan offers monthly, quarterly and semi-annual payment options.
Late or non-payment of tuition and/or fees: A penalty charge will be added to unpaid accounts once the account becomes delinquent.
Note: Special tuition rates are applied to registered members of St. George Parish who are Identified Financial Stewards (IFS). Identified Financial Steward is defined by St. George as a family that makes a minimum donation to St. George Church (offertory collection) of $75 per quarter, totaling no less than $300 per year. A donation to St. George School is not added to your IFS status.
