Tuition & Financial Aid Information

Our tuition is the lowest in the region. If you do not belong to a parish, it is $5,900, and includes everything except books and class dues. If you belong to a Parish, your pastor may sponsor your son or daughter for up to $1,000. Each parish has their own policy regarding the amount of support. If more support is needed, you are welcome to contact us and the Diocese. This year, between Diocesan Financial Aid and our own personal sources, we were able to offer an additional $41,000 to our students. If it is your desire to send your child to Saint Mary High School, it is our desire to assist you in accomplishing your goal.

Tuition may be paid in one full payment, in two half-payments, 4 quarterly payments or in ten (10) monthly installments. An added deduction of $75 will be granted if you pay the full payment by August 1st. Also, there is an automatic sibling discount of $500.

We do not charge our students for parking, we do not charge an academic fee, and we do not charge a sports fee! Class dues of $25 will be paid yearly and takes care of graduation costs.

Now that the dry accounting details have been exposed…let’s get creative!

Many families have had great success with our grocery gift certificate program. We buy gift certificates to Stop and Shop, Big Y, and the Butcher Block in bulk and save 5% off the total cost. You buy the certificates from us in $20 increments – and 5% goes into your tuition account. Watch your tuition savings grow! If you spend $150 per week on groceries, you will save $390 towards your tuition. Some families have had great success with this program, and sell certificates to extended family members and friends. They have actually paid a full tuition with the food gift certificate program!
