TUITION
The Pastor in
consultation with the Principal and the School Advisory Council will
determine the cost per student for each school year. Registered families of
St. John Vianney Parish and any other Diocesan Catholic Parish who attends
Mass weekly will receive a tuition discount. If you are paying the tuition
rate of a practicing Catholic, this means that you accept the “requirement”
to attend weekly Mass. The St. John Vianney School community has Mass once a
month and it is required that each student and their family attend Mass. The
students must be in school uniform.
