St. Apollinaris School strives to keep tuition rates affordable.  There are two tuition plans: Plan A for Active Catholic Parish Families and Plan B for Non-Active Families.

 Active Catholic Parish Families are those families who:  

1) Are registered in the Parish
2) Attend Mass weekly
3) Contribute to the church on a regular basis through the use of envelopes
4) Participate in parish activities

2009-2010 Active Families Annual Tuition (10 months)

2 Children         $8,880

Non Active Families Annual Tuition (10 months)

The estimated cost for the 2009-2010 school year is $6000 per child. Our Parish, Scrip Program and fund-raisers subsidize the difference between the actual cost and the tuition paid.

Scrip
Scrip is a fund-raiser for the school and helps subsidize the difference between the actual cost and tuition paid. Families have from May 1 through April 30 to meet their Scrip obligation. Each family has a Scrip obligation of $350 profit on purchases. If a family chooses not to purchase Scrip, there is a $350 fee.

Parent Participation
Our Parent Participation Program is designed to bring St. Apollinaris School parents into a close relationship with the school. The "category-based" program for Parent Participation is in effect and requires 30 points. (1 point per hour)

10 points are required for Category A, while 20 points are required for Category B.

· Category  "A" - 10 pts (Mercy's Four Major Fundraisers and Scrip Sales)
· Category "B" - 20 pts (Hot Lunch, Yard Duty, School clean-up days, Library/Classroom Help, Sports Programs, Miscellaneous (from qualified list) or extra points from A)

MERCY
Every family in the school is a member of MERCY, our parent-teacher organization. The MERCY fee of $10.00 per family is due with the registration/tuition fee and is non-refundable.
