2019-2020 School Year Tuition Announced
|
|
After a careful analysis of tuition rates and options were prepared for review by the STCS finance committee, members of the committee diliberated and reached consensus on a tuition rate for the 2019-2020 school year. the finanance committee's recommendation was presented to the School Advisory Board for additional analysis and modifications. The recommendation of the School Advisory Board was presented to, and approved by the Pastor, Fr. Kieffer and implemented by the school administration.
The complete tuition rate schedule is now available on the school's website at:
A special thank you to the those who carefully considered the current and future needs of STCS and worked hard with the goal of keeping tuition rates affordable. All involved urge families to take advantage of the committment of the State of Arizona to fully fund non-public school tuition with state tax dollars through the tuition tax credit programs administered by Student Tuition Organizations. Families are encouraged to attend one of the STCS sponsored
Funds-for-All
meetings to learn how to reduce the tuition burden to zero.
As an example of the increase in tution for the 2019-2020 year, the tuition rate for an in-parish family with one student has increased by $38.00 per month - or $45.60 per 10-month payment. Please consider how you might offset this increase with tax-credits.
