Parents/guardians who enroll their children in St. Bernadette School will be required to sign a tuition contract. The Parish Finance Council establishes tuition rates and schedules. There is an In-Parish and Out-of-Parish tuition rate. To qualify for the In-Parish rate, a family must be registered by June of the current school year and have demonstrated fidelity in Mass attendance, and consistency in using the Parish Offertory envelopes.
All tuition payments are made to the parish finance office in accordance with the terms of the contract. Late fees will be assessed for payments made after the due date.
The parish finance office reserves the right to cancel the registration of any student whose family fails to satisfactorily meet tuition payments according to the terms of the signed tuition contract. According to Archdiocesan Policy #3506, the parish finance office reserves the right to withhold a student's school records, including report cads, to parents or any other school when the family fails to satisfactorily meet tuition and/or assigned fee payments. All fees must be paid in full or a student may not be permitted to participate in graduation exercises. Tuition will not be refunded once it has been paid under any circumstances, including transfers or expulsions.
