Active Registered Parishioner Tuition Discount. The discounted tuition rate is available for families who are registered with St. John Fisher Church, attend Mass regularly as indicated by the use of weekly offering envelopes or Faith Direct coupons and participate in the sacraments and parish activities. Families who are not registered parishioners at the time of enrollment are required to pay the full non- parishioner tuition rate. Once registered in the Parish, there is a six (6) month waiting period to show parish support before reducing tuition to registered parishioner tuition rates.
We encourage any family who needs tuition assistance to apply for aid through the FACTS online process.
