Tuition Family Discount: The maximum monthly tuition per family is $1,450 for students in grades
Kindergarten through 12th Grade. (Based on 11 monthly payments, beginning June 1st and ending April 1st).
Pre-Kindergarten is not part of the “family cap.”
REGISTRATION FEE: The registration fee remains the same for the eleventh consecutive year.
Included in the registration fee are the application fee, testing fee, student accident insurance through the
Archdiocese of San Antonio group policy, and the PTC dues of $20 per child. The PTC funds the three
official classroom parties for the Lower School. Also included are the Archdiocesan PTC Federation dues,
Archdiocesan administrative fees, Archdiocesan collective advertising campaign fees, and Archdiocesan
“per-student” assessment fees. One annual yearbook per family is also included. Various administrative
fees such as the academy’s membership in the National Catholic Education Association and dues for our
accreditation board, TCCED, is included. Also included are the 8th grade and senior graduation fees, the
annual Upper School activity fee, and the individual class ring. Included in the registration fee are the
group transportation costs for the annual field trip taken by the music department for selected singers.
Fund-raising activity is handled on a purely voluntary basis. However, parents are encouraged to sell
their allotted tickets for King’s Fair in support of our expansion.
Not Included: Textbooks are the responsibility of families, and are the property of the students. An
online system for purchasing books is available with a vendor and it is the responsibility of our families to
purchase needed items so that they arrive before the first day of classes. Books may be purchased new or
used, (when available), from this vendor or another third-party book vendor.
Uniforms, T-shirts/gym shorts, milk, the hot-lunch program, classroom or grade-based field trips,
individual membership dues in the Junior and National Honor Society, club and sports fees, Advanced
Placement testing costs, and school supplies are not included. There is no family discount for the
registration fee and it is non-refundable once the applicant has been enrolled into the academy.
* PAYMENT OPTIONS: Families may choose between two plans. With the first plan, eleven
monthly tuition payments are made, beginning on June 1st, and ending April 1st. Families are
required to register a credit card before the applicant is enrolled, and the credit card must remain valid for
monthly auto-debits to cover tuition over the course of the payment schedule. In the event that a credit
card is electronically denied when payment is due, a late fee of $100 will be added to the account, and the
entire remaining balance may become due for recurring instances. The academy will accept cash or
checks prior to the 1st of the month only. After the 1st of the month, the credit card on file will be run. The
second plan is one yearly payment, which means that all tuition and the registration fee must be paid
by June 1st. An additional family discount of $200 will apply if the total tuition and registration fees are
paid in full by that date, or for new families by the date of their enrollment.
REFUND POLICY: Registration fees are non-refundable. Please see the Handbook for Parents and
Students for further information regarding tuition.
ENROLLMENT: All students apply for enrollment each year. For returning students and their siblings,
