1. Tuition is collected by SMART tuition collection. Families may pay either with a coupon or by automatic deduction. An annual tuition collection fee for each family is payable at registration. Any family that pays tuition in full by June 10 of the previous school year will be refunded the tuition collection fee.

2. Tuition is payable monthly from July through June. The July and August payments must be paid before a student is admitted in September.

3. Any family that falls behind on scheduled payments will receive a letter reminding them and a late fee will be imposed.

4. Any family that falls three months behind will receive a letter indicating they have two weeks to settle their account. Failure to respond will result in the student(s) being removed from class until the account is settled.

5. No final exams results, report cards, or records will be released if a family is not current with payments for tuition or the After School Program.

6. No student will be allowed to participate in either Pre-K, or Kindergarten Elevation Celebrations or Eighth Grade graduation ceremonies if all accounts are not current.

7. No student will be admitted to the next school year if any accounts from the previous year are not completely settled.

8. Checks returned to St. Mary’s as uncollectible will be charged a fee equal to what the school’s bank charges for such returns.

9. The tuition for each calendar month or any fraction of a calendar month for which a student is enrolled shall be 1/12 of the annual tuition.
