PAYMENT TERMS:

A family can choose one of the following tuition payment plans:

EFT: Monthly automatic withdrawals (must provide banking information or void cheque)

Lump-Sum: One advance payment dated September 1st (must be submitted to the office by the first day of school, September 5th, 2023)

TUITION COMMITMENT:

It is important to note that school tuition is an annual commitment from September 1st to June 15th, and is nonrefundable after September 1st of the given school year. This is because (1) the school’s government funding is provided for on a per-student basis, meaning early withdrawal affects the school’s overall funding envelope; and (2) it is very difficult to replace a student once spaces have been committed to. Tuition payments may only be cancelled if the student transfers out of school due to a move out of province, or pending a letter of approval from the PEC.


INSUFFICIENT FUNDS:

If an EFT is returned to the school by the bank, an additional charge of $45 will be levied to the family.


FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE:

If your family is experiencing financial hardship, you should contact the principal and pastor to discuss financial assistance in helping you meet your tuition payments. You must fill out and submit additional Financial Assistance forms. The pastor, on an individual case basis, will determine the assistance to the family in need. For Blessed Sacrament Parish, the Principal along with the P.E.C. will determine the assistance to family in need.
