About St. Apollinaris Catholic School

Tuition & Fees

St. Apollinaris School strives to keep tuition rates affordable. There are two tuition plans: Plan A for Active Catholic Parish Families and Plan B for Non-Active Families.

Active Catholic Parish Families are those families who:

1) Are registered in the Parish
2) Attend Mass weekly
3) Contribute to the church on a regular basis through the use of envelopes
4) Participate in parish activities
