Student tuition is dependent upon registration within St. Bernadette Parish or those who have signed the home parish verification form. If a family is not registered in the parish upon enrollment in the school, non-parishioner tuition rates will apply. If a family registers in the parish after the school year begins, non-parishioner rates continue for the remainder of that school year. This does not apply to families moving into the area and registering in the parish upon moving. Payment of tuition may be made either by 10 monthly payments (July through April) or full payment by September 1st. If full payment is paid by September 1st the amount owed is $50 less than the amounts listed. * * CATHOLIC AND PARTICIPATING MEMBERS OF A CATHOLIC PARISH * * 1st child (K-8) $2450 (10 pmts of $245 - July through April) 2nd child (K-8) $1650 (10 pmts of $410 - July through April) 3rd child (K-8) $1400 (10 pmts of $550 - July through April) 4th child (K-8) $1000 (10 pmts of $650 - July through April) A Pastor Verification Form is necessary for the above scale if not a parishioner of St. Bernadette Church.. * * NON-CATHOLIC AND NON-PARTICIPATING MEMBERS OF A CATHOLIC PARISH * * 1st child (K-8) $3500 (10 pmts of $350 - July through April) 2nd child (K-8) $3200 (10 pmts of $670 - July through April) Each family will be assessed a $470 FUNDRAISING FEE which may be paid by participating in the gift certificate program. $50 will be deducted from the fundraising fee for any family working the Parish Festival in June * * 3 AND 4 YEAR OLD PRESCHOOL * * 3 Yr.
