Tuition & Affordability

At Sacred Heart, tuition is more than a payment—it's an investment in your child's future.

Rooted in faith, service, and academic excellence, our Pre-Kindergarten through 8th grade program nurtures the whole child in a caring, values-driven community.

The return? Confident learners, compassionate leaders, and a lifelong love of learning.

The Sacred Heart community is what makes this place so special. We support each other through buddies, mentorship, sports, retreats, and cheering each other on. Teachers truly care and take the time to help us grow. Students of all ages build connections, like in Playmakers, where older students help the younger cast. It is a place where your effort matters, and you always feel like you belong." - 8th Grade Student, Carter H.

Tuition Assistance

We believe that everyone should have access to Catholic Education.

Tuition assistance is granted based on demonstrated need and the family’s record of meeting obligations to the school, if applicable. Our deadline for the 1st round of assistance is January 30, 2026.

All applicants need to complete a Tuition Assistance Application Form. This application form must be fully completed to be considered. The Tuition Assistance Form can be found in your child's checklist on Finalsite.

Tuition assistance funds are limited, so an application is not an assurance of assistance. Please submit your form on or before the January 30th deadline to receive the fullest possible consideration.

Please call or e-mail our principal, David Burroughs if have any questions about this process.

Active Parishioner Requirements

Sacred Heart School is a ministry of Sacred Heart Parish. As such, we receive annual support from the parish for our school's programs and overhead expenses. Each year we receive 20% of the parish's ordinary income. In other words, for every dollar given to Sacred Heart Church, 20% comes right back to the school. The other 80% also benefits our students, parents, and staff through programs like sacramental preparation, weekly school Masses, youth ministry, classroom visit and guest lectures, bookkeeping and administrative support, and more. This generous support of our school by the parish is why we can offer an Active Parishioner Discount to those families who meet the criteria.

What is required to be considered an "Active Parishioner"?

Be a registered parishioner of the parish.
Have an annual pledge card on file and be making regular contributions toward fulfilling that pledge.
Regularly attend weekend and holy day Masses.
Be actively involved in some program, project, or ministry of Sacred Heart Parish.
Submit a completed online application.

In terms of parish involvement, this can include a wide variety of activities (e.g., altar serving or lectoring, ushering or assisting with hospitality after Mass, assisting with Children's Liturgy of the Word or Confirmation classes, joining the Knights of Columbus or St. Vincent DePaul, assisting with church environment or parish clean-up projects, and much more). If you need suggestions please visit the parish website or have other ideas about how to be involved in the parish, contact Annette Seats.

These applications are due by December 5, 2025 in order to be considered before re-enrollment for the 2026-2027 school year. We encourage everyone to meet this deadline. Late application can be accepted, however it may require additional enrollment steps and/or costs, including a $50 contract regeneration fee.

Payment Options & Withdrawal Liability

Tuition Payment Options
Withdrawal Policy and Withdrawal Tuition Liability

Tuition Payment Options

Families may choose to make their tuition payments in one of the two following ways:

1. Tuition Payment in full by check – payment in full due August 20, 2025

-OR-

2. 12-Month Tuition Payment Plan – monthly payments via Finalsite begin July 20, 2025 and run through June 20, 2026

Recognizing that payment of school tuition is a requirement of each family and that the need to maintain a continuous and consistent cash flow is essential to a well-managed school, the following policy applies to tuition payments:

A. For 12-Month Tuition Payment Plan - Tuition is due on or before the 20th day of every month. Should a situation arise that a payment will be late, the parent is responsible for notifying the school principal as soon as possible. In the event that a family fails to pay tuition on time, the school principal will initiate the following procedures:

If at the end of thirty (30) days the tuition account is not current, the parent will be notified by the principal of the past due amount. A late fee of $25 will be added to the total tuition balance, and additional late fees of $25 each month will continue to be added until the account is current.
If at the end of sixty (60) days the past due condition continues to exist, the parent will be notified in writing by the principal that the account must be brought current.
If at the end of ninety (90) days the account has not been brought current, school services to the family will be immediately discontinued and the account will be referred to a collection agency.

B. Sacred Heart School reserves the right, if any tuition payment is past due, to remove the student(s) from the school. The school has the further right to refuse re-enrollment for the following school year until financial commitments have been met. Re-enrollment in the current year or enrollment for the following year will not be accepted until tuition and fees are paid in full. The school will withhold all report cards, mid-term reports, and school records, including eighth grade diplomas until all financial obligations are met. Additionally, families who have past due tuition are not eligible for tuition assistance.

C. Families that are experiencing financial difficulties should contact the principal immediately.

D. Electronic banking is an option for all school families. No charitable (goods or services) contribution shall be accepted in consideration of a student’s enrollment at Sacred Heart School.

Withdrawal Policy and Withdrawal Tuition Liability

Families who make a decision to withdraw from Sacred Heart School after registering must notify the school in writing. Families are also asked to make an appointment with the office for an exit interview prior to leaving the school. Sacred Heart School will not forward records for students who withdraw with an outstanding balance (tuition, fees, and/or fundraising).

Depending on the date of withdrawal, families are liable for the percentage of the total annual tuition as indicated below:

February – the day before 1^st day of school - 25% of annual tuition
1^st day of school – October - 60% of annual tuition
November - $80% of annual tuition
December and beyond - 100% of annual tuition
