The supported rate is available to Catholic families who meet the criteria set by the Diocese of Manchester. These criteria are: active participants in parish life, participating in envelope system, regular attendance at Mass. Pastors determine eligibility for support. The deadline for approval for supported rate is April 1.
Tuition may be paid in one payment in July or may be paid in 10 installments, July-April, through the FACTS Tuition Management Program. There is a small fee for participating in the FACTS Program.

The activity fee is used to pay for field trips, bus transportation and special in-school programs that would otherwise be paid for by parents on a per event basis.
Educational material fees are used to offset the increasing cost of textbooks in the upper grades. No materials fees will be assessed in Grades PreK-4.
The graduation fee is used to pay for caps and gowns, flowers, diplomas, eighth-grade retreat and other costs associated with the cost of graduation.
In addition to tuition, there are two obligations that Saint Mary Academy families assume fundraising and volunteer service. These are designed to insure that the school has the financial and human resources necessary to provide the best possible program for our students.
Fundraising
All families are required to participate in fundraising at a level which would net the school $300 per year, per family. In lieu of fundraising, families may make a donation to the school of $300. Another option is to meet part of this obligation through fundraising and make a donation for the remainder. Profits from the following fundraisers are part of this program: Fall Fundraiser (Parts I and II), Raffle Calendar, Butter Braids.
Volunteer Service
All families are expected to perform 10 hours per year of volunteer service for the school. These volunteer hours are to be done by an adult. Volunteer opportunities are many and varied. Volunteer information is sent out at the beginning of each school year.
