Tuition & Fees
(For school year 2011-2012)

Tuition is $9,900.00 per active Catholic parishioner at Saints Peter and Paul and $10,600.00 for non-active parishioner, Catholics from other parishes, or other faith denominations. This includes student fees of $700 for each student in Grades 9-12.

To qualify for the reduced parishioner tuition rate, the following criteria must be met:

1. You live within the boundaries of Talbot County.
2. Your Parish Census Form is on file at the parish office and is completed with current information.
3. You utilize parish offertory envelopes regularly. If you do not currently receive parish offertory envelopes, please notify the parish office and they will be ordered.
4. The parish offertory envelopes must be used on a weekly basis and reflect donations throughout the year. In lieu of envelopes, you may utilize the e-Giving option through PledgeConnect. Please visit our website, www.ssppeaston.org, for more information.

The Parish Finance Office will review offertory contribution reports at least two times during the school year, and will notify the school principal if any family fails to meet the above criteria. A notice will be issued by the finance office to any parish family in jeopardy of losing the reduced tuition rate. As long as the parish criteria are met, the parish will offer the reduced tuition rate on an annual basis.

Any personal check returned by the bank after July 5th for the payment in full option will null and void the 5% discount.
