Dear Parents / Guardians:
It is a sincere blessing to work in partnership with our Star families and fabulous administrative and teaching team; and, I am grateful to you for allowing us the privilege and sacred trust in helping you to educate your child. We are currently in the process of preparing for the upcoming 2022-2023 school year and we want to ensure that our plans maximize the benefit to your child/children.
The quality of your child’s education, as well as their faith formation, is our first and foremost priority. We are, however, also aware of the financial strains and the sacrifices families make to ensure that their children receive a quality Catholic education. A 3% increase in tuition reflects the annual inflation costs to run a school and allows us to provide dedicated and qualified teachers, small class sizes, continued facility management, and excellent academic programs in a safe and inviting learning environment. Therefore, with the guidance and support of our Pastor, Fr. Frankie and the Mary, Star of the Sea School Board our:
REGULAR tuition, including PTG and comprehensive fees for the 2022-2023 school year will be $12,500.00.
ESL tuition, including PTG and comprehensive fees for the 2022-2023 school year will be $18,125.00.
Sibling Discount: This year, we are happy to continue offering a $1,500.00 sibling discount.
We encourage you to take advantage of the full payment discount and the financial aid programs, which are accessible from our website.
Enrollment Deadline: Our enrollment in most of our classrooms has reached its full capacity. Therefore, to guarantee your child’s placement for the next school year, it is imperative to return the re-enrollment form with a deposit to the school office or homeroom teacher by Monday, February 28, 2022.
We appreciate your partnership and involvement in the Nā Nai’a Hōkū Ohana and look forward to working together to ensure the continued success of Catholic education at Mary, Star of the Sea School, where a strong foundation matters.
Sincerely,
Margaret Rufo
Principal
