2022-23 TUITION RATES
Wondering if your family has been approved for the Catholic-Affiliated tuition rate next year? We are currently in the process of getting verification from parishes. Our Admissions Department works directly with Churches on tuition rate approval. The only Churches that require parents to contact them directly on an annual basis are Mother Teresa Catholic Mission and St. Michael. Monarch parents who are members of those parishes should have already received an email advising them to contact their Church office and submit a Ministry Form. All other parents, please hold tight. We expect all tuition rates to be confirmed this spring. You will be notified by email. The K-8 Catholic-Affiliated Tuition Rate for 2022-23 is $7425. The K-8 Non-Affiliated Rate is $9950.
