FACTS - STM Tuition Management
Dear STM families,
We hope this note finds you and your family healthy and doing well. During these unprecedented circumstances, the students and families of the St. Thomas More school community are in our daily thoughts and prayers.
While all of us continue to navigate this difficult situation of the COVID-19 pandemic, we recognize that we will get through this together, and that planning for the 2020-2021 school year must continue so that we can serve our students and families effectively.
In order to provide our families with greater convenience and flexibility, we have partnered with FACTS Management Company to help us manage our tuition payment program. FACTS is used by many schools locally and more than 7,000 schools nationally. We are excited to work with FACTS and are confident this program will offer greater efficiency and financial stability for the school while providing convenience to families.
For many years, tuition collection at St. Thomas More has been managed by Mrs. Dale Oufnac. Dale has decided to retire at the end of this school year, and we want to express our deep appreciation for her dedicated service to STM.
FACTS will now serve as the tuition management system at St. Thomas More. You will realize the following benefits by using FACTS for your tuition payment plan:
Payment Date Options:
Bi-Monthly – July – May (no payment in Jan) on the 5th and 20th
Monthly - July-May (no payment in Jan) on the 5th, 15th, or 25th
Quarterly – July/Oct/Jan/April on the 5th, 15th, or 25th
Semi-Annual - July and January on the 5th, 15th, or 25th
Annual - July on the 5th, 15th, or 25th

Along with multiple payment plan options, your payments are processed securely through a bank-to-bank transaction.

Consumer Account
: The school will finalize your financial plan no later than May 30, 2020, and you will be able to see your tuition and fee charges. You may check your FACTS account or make payments online from the convenience of your home or office anytime.
One of the universal challenges in education is achieving a balance between our educational mission and financial stability. It is precisely for this reason we are enlisting the help of the FACTS Management Company. With FACTS, the school maintains decision-making control. As always, we will continue to work with families should special circumstances or hardship cases arise during the school year.
Thank you for your continued partnership with St. Thomas More School. We depend on your support in our efforts to provide the highest quality of education for your children as we remain committed to our mission.
