As we set tuition each school year, we have three goals: ensure that we have the resources necessary to continue delivering an outstanding Catholic education to our children; keep the education we provide affordable for our families relative to area Catholic schools; and to ensure our Catholic school is financially stable.
Please review the new Tuition Plan for the 2025-2026 school year below.

Grants and Aid
Scholarships and financial assistance are available, and it’s very important to us that no family ever feels they don't have access to a Catholic education solely due to finances. We would love to talk with you about the support options we can offer and explore whether enrolling might be possible for your family.
FACTS
At least one parent (or financially responsible party) is required to create and maintain an active account with FACTS. A monthly service fee is added to monthly payments. If you pay in full, the fee is waived.
Parish Contributions
It’s important to understand that tuition covers only about 50% of our school’s total operating costs. Our parishes play a vital role in keeping Catholic education more affordable.
Our Family School Agreement establishes a baseline of expectations for all families and will distinguish between “Active Parishioner” and “Non-Parishioner,” whereby the active parishioner commits to full engagement in the life of the parish, notably including regular Mass attendance. The primary goal of our tuition plan is to further encourage and support families in their spiritual journey. We strongly believe that regular Mass attendance is a vital component of a vibrant and thriving faith community, including strengthening the culture which exists in our schools. Each parish provides a generous Faithful Servant Scholarship of $3,650 per year for every parish family who meet the scholarship criteria, which helps cover approximately 26% of our overall expenses.
To qualify for the Faithful Servant Scholarship,
- Students who have demonstrated a minimum of 51% Mass attendance will be eligible to receive the Faithful Servant Scholarship
- Students who have been Baptized in the Catholic faith or have been received in the Catholic faith during First Communion and Confirmation
The parishioner tuition rate is available to families who are active members of Holy Ghost, St. Francis Xavier, St. Mary’s (Westwood), or St. Patrick’s (Grafton). This discounted rate reflects the financial support your parish contributes on your behalf.
As part of this partnership, regular Sunday Mass attendance and the use of parish offertory envelopes (or electronic giving) are expected. These actions demonstrate your family's active participation in parish life, which is a key part of receiving the parish-subsidized tuition rate.
We are deeply grateful to our parishes for their continued investment in our school and in your child’s Catholic education.
Fundraising
Parish and school fundraising also plays an important role in offsetting tuition costs. The remaining 24% of the revenue needed to operate our school comes from fundraisers, such as HarvestFest and the Knights of Columbus Dinner Auction, and donations. Your commitment to work shifts during HarvestFest ensures our biggest fundraiser is successful and, ultimately, saves each family approximately $1000 per year in tuition costs. Support of our fundraising efforts through your attendance, participation, and volunteering is very important.
