TUITION POLICY #3111.4
Families with children registered at St. Peter School and Preschool will be charged tuition in an amount to be recommended by the St. Peter Catholic Education Commission and approved by the St. Peter Finance Council.
Families will select one of the following options for tuition payment:
1. In full by August 1st.
2. Payment choices offered by the tuition management program.
Any payment not completely paid by the due date will be considered in arrears and will be added to the following payment due. Late fees in the amount of $10 per month will be assessed in accordance with the tuition management program.
If tuition payments are in arrears, the St. Peter Catholic Education Commission will take the following steps:
- No registration forms (or payments) will be accepted for enrollment at St. Peter's School or Preschool until tuition payments, with the applicable late fees, are up-to-date. Space will not be reserved during registration for those families that are not up-to-date with their tuition payments including any applicable late fees.
- Enrollment at St. Peter School or Preschool for the upcoming year will not be allowed if there is an outstanding balance from a previous school year as of July 15.
- All outstanding balances must be paid at least 2 weeks prior to Commencement.
Commencement diplomas will not be issued to any student whose family still has an outstanding balance.
- Require participation in the SMART automatic deduction program.
If a family is experiencing financial hardship, exceptions may be made to accommodate them. However, the family must discuss their situation with either the Pastor of St. Peter Parish, the Principal of St. Peter School, or the Finance Chair of St. Peter Catholic Education Commission before any exceptions will be made.
If tuition payments for the upcoming year are paid in full by August 1 st, a percentage discount is available commensurate with the rate provided from the Diocese.
In the event a student(s) leaves St. Peter School before the end of the school year, reimbursement of paid tuition will be issued on a prorated basis.
