About Our Lady Of Lourdes School

Policy
Our Lady of Lourdes School distributes its Tuition Schedule for the following school year during Catholic Schools Week which is held during the last week of January.

It is the obligation of the parents to meet their financial obligations by making their tuition payments in a timely fashion as agreed upon at the time of registration/re-registration. Parents/Guardians are obligated to pay tuition and fees in order to obtain educational services for their children. It is their responsibility to maintain their financial commitments to the school. OLOL may, but is not obligated to, send reminders or other notices regarding outstanding bills. Failure to make payments when due, or to make arrangements with the school for payment of delinquent obligations, may result in discontinuation of educational services to the student, possibly leading to disenrollment.

This is the Diocesan policy on tuition collection which is practiced at Our Lady of Lourdes School:

All tuition and fees (including Administration Fee, SCRIP fee, lunch IOU's and late fees) must be current and up to date by December 31st of each school year in order for students to return to school in January after Christmas vacation. In addition, tuition must be current and up to date by the end of the third marking period (dates are listed on the school calendar) in order for students to return for the fourth marking period. Policy states that œif a family neglects to pay tuition, the student may be dismissed up until the end of the third quarter. If the student has been dismissed by the end of the 3rd quarter, a grade of œINComplete  will be placed on the student's record.  Please note that it is also in the policy that œthe school reserves the right to cancel the registration of any student whose family fails to meet tuition payments at the school .

All families have received tuition statements with tuition due dates, either at registration for new students, or in June of the previous year for returning students. Reminders are sent each month for late payments and late fees that are due. Please be sure to have tuition payments to the school office by 2:00pm on the first of each month in order to avoid late fees. All late fees will be enforced for payments received after the first of the month.

We realize that a Catholic education is important to all of our families. We understand the sacrifices that are made by families, as we are experiencing them too. We respect and appreciate all your efforts to give your children an outstanding catholic education at Our Lady of Lourdes School. Working together, we can support both your family and our school and make your child's education the best that it can be.
