Families In Service 2024-2025
Our Catholic school does not benefit from state and federal funding in the same way as public schools. We rely on our community working together to be sure the students have a full academic, extra- and co-curricular experienced. Therefore, it is expected that each Academy family give a minimum of 25 hours* of service time to the school over the course of the school year. Should a family choose not to participate in this program a fee of $500.00 will be assessed to that family. A prorated amount, based on the number of hours still owed will be billed to families who fail to accumulate the 25 hours by school’s end. The balance must be paid by May 20th to keep a place for the following school year.
