Tuition Information
2024-2025
School Year (K-8th Grade)
As has been the case for many years, St. Columbkille Parish has generously gifted financial support to all school families to offset the cost of tuition. The current cost to educate a student is approximately $8,550 but with the support of parish funds, government assistance, and fundraising, the actual tuition paid by a school family is much less. St. Columbkille Parish continues this tradition of financial support because we believe every family should be able to provide a Catholic education for their child.
Our registration portal through Digital Academy is ONLY accessible from a desktop computer. Mobile and tablet devices do not currently support this software.
Tuition Information
While each family’s tuition will be unique to them, this table serves as a guide to estimate your 2024-2025 tuition. We encourage all families to apply for both the EdChoice and Angel Scholarships.
