Tuition
We deeply appreciate your sacrifices to provide your child with a Catholic education. Your family makes a wonderful investment in your child's future by choosing a Catholic school.
Tuition & Fees for the 2025-2026 School Year:
PreK 4 through 8th grade: $8,385
*Possible Active Catholic Discount: -$1,200
Available FACTS Tuition Payment Plans
*To qualify for the Active Catholic Discount, all families attending a Catholic Parish within the Archdiocese of Baltimore must submit an approved Parish Verification Form yearly with the Pastor’s original signature and Parish seal.
**The $200 Technology fee covers the certificates, licensing, device management platforms, content filtering, and online subscriptions that all students use, which we have never charged for in the past. Each student is given the opportunity to keep their Chromebook at the end of their 5th and 8th-grade years, as the short lifespan of these devices means they would otherwise be discarded.
Technology Insurance Plan (TIP)
St. Joseph School-Fullerton will offer a Technology Insurance Plan (TIP) for the 2025-2026 school year, which families can opt into.
Students enrolled in the Technology Insurance Program (TIP) can get their device repaired or replaced once by paying an opt-in fee of $50 per student per academic year before October 1. If further repairs or replacements are needed after the initial repair, the family will be responsible for covering all the expenses until coverage is renewed in the following academic year.
Families who choose not to participate in the TIP will be held accountable for any repair costs associated with damage to their child's assigned device. In the event of damage, the Technology Coordinator will provide the family with the total repair cost, and payment must be received before a replacement device is provided or repairs commence.
Tuition & Fees Payments
FACTS is the tuition management system and the grant/aid platform used by the schools in the Archdiocese of Baltimore. All families are asked to create an account with FACTS to manage their tuition payments and to apply for financial aid (if applicable). Please see the FACTS section for more information regarding payment plans.
The Finalsite Parent Portal manages our admissions and enrollment and collects and processes associated student fees. Parents may log into their student(s) account to complete school forms, upload documents, and track the admissions & enrollment processes via student checklists.
Tuition Obligation for the 2024-2025 School Year
Release of Tuition Obligation/Tuition Refund Policy for First-Year Families:
Should a new family enroll at St. Joseph School-Fullerton and later decide to withdraw, responsibility for tuition payments may remain to compensate the school for expenses already incurred related to the student’s education and the potential lost opportunity to fill that seat with another student. The amount of tuition obligation depends on the withdrawal date, as specified below.
Release of Tuition Obligation/Tuition Refund Policy for Current Families:
For all returning families, upon re-enrollment of a student and execution of a tuition contract, the full year’s tuition shall be considered payable. If a student should leave the school for any reason during the school year, the school will refund tuition (not including fees) based on the following schedule.
Release of Tuition Obligation/Tuition Refund Policy for All Families:
Please note that student fees paid at the time of the contract signing are non-refundable and non-transferable, regardless of the withdrawal date. Since individual student accounts are invoiced on a family basis, these policies will affect each child. If an out-going student leaves a balance due, the younger siblings will not be admitted to school until the out-going student’s balance is paid in full. No enrollment will be permitted in any other Archdiocesan school while tuition and/or fees are outstanding.
