*Please note: To be eligible for in-parish tuition, formal registration at St. Mary\'s Church and active participation in parish life, as measured by regular offertory envelope use, for a period of one year prior to acquiring parishioner status for tuition purposes is required. All decisions on parish standing rest solely with the pastor of St. Mary\'s Church.

St. Mary's School uses FACTS as its online tuition and fee management service. Tuition and fees are payable to FACTS in 10 monthly payments, June through March. A processing fee does apply. St. Mary's also offers the option of paying tuition and fees in full through FACTS. Newly accepted families will receive instructions on setting up their FACTS accounts in their acceptance letters.

For families enrolled in our Extended Day Program, corresponding fees will be added to their FACTS account and spread over 10 months.
