Tuition and Fees

Tuition

By choosing a Catholic school, a family is choosing to invest in a child’s future. A future of college and career success, but more importantly the daily reminder to strive towards eternal reward in heaven. A Catholic school education is a financial investment, and our graduates and their families would attest that it is well worth it!

The School Board determines both Catholic and Other Faith tuition rates annually.  Resurrection-St. Paul School complies with the Archdiocesan tuition guidelines and sets tuition for each child “at cost.”

Discounts/Credits

Please note the discounts are applied to tuition in the same order as they are listed below.

Catholic Family Discount – Through the Special Assessment for Catholic Schools, every Parish within the Archdiocese of Baltimore supports Catholic Education based on the generosity of their parishioners.  It is through this generosity that our Catholic Families are afforded a discounted rate on tuition, as they are most often the direct supporters of this special assessment and contribute specifically to their parishes and the entire Archdiocese.

Multi Child Discount – Families with three or more children enrolled in the school will receive a 10% discount on tuition for the third and subsequent children. 

One Time Payment Discount – Families paying tuition in full, do so at a discounted rate.  Please see the Tuition Rate chart for specific amounts.

Bi-Annual Payment Plan Discount – Families paying tuition in two installments, do so at a discounted rate.  Please see the Tuition Rate chart for specific amounts.

Referral Discount – Current families referring a new family to the school may receive a $500 tuition credit per family based on the enrollment of a new family in grades K-8.  Application of the referral credit will be applied to the referring family’s October tuition payment for the current school year.  If the referring family has paid their tuition in full under the One Time Payment Plan, the referral credit will be applied to the following year’s tuition.

Tuition Payment Plans

At the time of acceptance or re-enrollment, a tuition deposit in the amount of $200 (not refundable) per child is required along with a selection of one of three payment plans offered.  The $200 deposit is applied directly to your tuition obligation, and the remaining balance is applied to the tuition payment plan chosen in FACTS.  The $200.00 tuition deposit is non-refundable.

10 Month Payment Plan – Ten equal payments of tuition on a monthly basis beginning in May and ending in February.  (10 payments are only available if enrollment is processed prior to May.  For each subsequent month after the May enrollment date, please deduct one available month for payment.)

Bi-Annual Payment Plan – Two payments of one-half of tuition due in May and November.

One Time Payment – Payment in full due in May.

Families have the ability to choose from several different due dates that would be convenient to their financial situation.  Due date options:  5th, 10th, 15th, 25th or last day of the month.

FACTS Tuition Management

Resurrection-St. Paul School, per the Archdiocese of Baltimore Catholic Schools Tuition Policy, requires all families to pay tuition through FACTS Tuition Management. The 10 Month Payment Plan option and the Bi-Annual Payment Plan require payment to be made via ACH debit or credit card. Check payments are not accepted. If the One Time Payment option is chosen, payment may be made via check, ACH debit or credit card. Please note that an additional processing fee of 2.95% is charged for credit card payments. To avoid the additional 2.95% processing fee, simply set your account up using an ACH draft from a checking or savings account instead of using a credit card number. A processing fee of $30.00 will be charged by FACTS for any returned payments.

Delinquency

A tuition payment is considered late on the 10th day after a payment due date.  A late fee of $35 will be added to the tuition account.  Late fees will continue to accrue for each month for a payment that is past due.

Resurrection-St. Paul School recognizes that delinquencies may happen from time to time due to extenuating circumstances.  If a family finds themselves in a financial hardship they are strongly encouraged to contact the Business Manager who may be able to offer:

·        Change in payment dates

·        Extension of payment periods

·        Re-allocation of payment amounts

Resurrection –St. Paul School reserves the right to refuse admittance to class, withhold progress reports and transcripts, and/or shut off PowerSchool parent access when the family fails to meet payments satisfactorily or make a financial arrangement mutually agreeable to both parties. No progress reports
or transcripts will be issued for any family whose financial obligations are not met. Additionally, admission for each trimester is conditional on satisfactory compliance with all financial obligations. Failure to meet all financial obligations in a timely manner may result in a student being removed from
his/her class list for the upcoming academic trimester. The school reserves the right to withhold all student records (with the exception of Health Records) until accounts have been paid in full. Since individual student accounts are invoiced on a family basis, these policies will affect each child in the
family, therefore; if an out-going student leaves a balance due, the younger siblings will not be admitted to school until the outgoing student’s balance is paid in full. No enrollment will be permitted in any other Archdiocesan school while there are tuition and/or fees outstanding. Once tuition obligations
have been met, a student may be re-admitted on a space available basis.

PK3 – Potty Trained Exception:   The schedule below was created to accommodate students who are not yet potty-trained at the time of enrollment.  This policy applies ONLY to PK3 students where the school has been notified that the student is not fully potty trained during the enrollment process.  Please note that a student may NOT start school until they are fully potty trained.  If the student is not fully potty trained at the start of the school year, Resurrection-St. Paul School will work with the family with the ultimate goal of the PK3 student starting school by October 1st.  If the family chooses to withdraw the student because they are not fully potty trained, the following schedule applies unless RSPS is able to immediately fill the spot with a waitlisted student.  If the spot is filled, the school will release the family of 100% of the tuition obligation, however; the $200.00 tuition deposit is non-refundable.

Fees

8th Grade Graduation/Activities Fee

This fee is assessed to all 8th graders in March of their graduating year.  The amount varies from year to year based on the number of students in the 8th grade class.  The fee will be charged to the family’s FACTS account for a March 20th payment.

6th Grade North Bay Fee

This is assessed to all 6th graders who choose to attend North Bay outdoor education week.  This amount varies from year to year based on the number of students attending.

Technology Fee

 A Technology fee of $125 is assessed for students enrolled in Grades 3 – 8.  The fee will be charged to the family’s FACTS account with the tuition payment plan chosen.

Volunteer Service Fees

Each family with a child(ren) in full day PreK-3 through Grade 8 is required to provide 20 hours of service to the school. Families with a child in the half-day, 2-day, 3-day PreK-3 or PreK-4 programs are only required to provide 10 hours of service to the school if there is no other sibling attending full day. Single-parent families are obligated to perform 10 hours of service. Single-parent volunteer service fee status must be presented to and approved by the school principal, prior to October 1st of the current school year.

The full volunteer service fee is $300.00 or $150.00 for a single-parent household or a family with only a half- day, 2-day or 3-day preschool student. Families not fulfilling their volunteer service requirement will be charged for unmet hours at the rate of $15.00 per hour.

Volunteer hours are due in the log book by May 1st. Outstanding service fees will be charged to the family’s FACTS account on May 25th. If a family knows that they will be performing volunteer hours for the school after the May 1st deadline, they should log that service information into the volunteer log book, prior to May 1st and indicate what their service will be and the hours and date it will be performed. An example of this would be volunteer hours that are performed in May and June of the current school year, such as assisting with the 8th grade graduation, end of the year class parties, helping at Field Day, the 5K Fun Run, etc. It is not the school’s obligation to log volunteer hours into the log book on behalf of our families. All bills not paid by the end of the school year will result in progress reports being held until the obligation is met.

Parents may accrue hours for service with the Church of the Resurrection CYO basketball leagues and the Church of the Resurrection or St. Paul’s sponsored Scout groups. Each hour of CYO or Scout volunteer time counts as a half hour of volunteer time. Up to 10 hours of CYO basketball or Scout troop
volunteer time may be logged towards volunteer service for a family and up to 5 hours for a single parent household may be logged. The remaining 10 hours or 5 service hours need to be performed for the direct benefit of the school.
