TUITION ASSISTANCE MEETINGS FOR THE 2012-2013 SCHOOL YEAR
Just a reminder, all students at Mary Immaculate Star of the Sea School receive Financial Aid. The cost of educating each child this year was around $7,500.00. The difference in tuition charged and the cost of educating each child is made up through generous donations, support from our parish and community, and extraordinary fund-raising efforts by YOU and YOUR FAMILIES. Thank you!

Meetings take only 10 minutes. Bring your W-2 forms to the appointment. Call 294-1031 to schedule a meeting.
