Tuition and Financial Aid for the 2021-2022 School Year

The St. Peter Catholic School is committed to providing a faith-filled, quality academic education for our children. The actual cost of educating each child in our Catholic school is an average of $7,352.00 for students in kindergarten through 8th grade. In an effort to keep Catholic school tuition increases to a minimum, our parish subsidizes tuition costs for each child in 2021-2022 as indicated below.

A Note From Our Principal
Dear Parents,

I am very aware of the sacrifice many of our families make when they commit to Catholic education. The Diocese and the Parish provide some funds to help families who demonstrate financial need. Here are some additional ways to earn money towards your tuition costs:

1. Universal Education Supporters (uesdenver.org)
This is a non-profit organization that has the sole purpose to serve Catholic education, Pre-K through College, and help families meet their tuition obligations. UES staffs concession stands at major sporting events around the Denver metro area. UES now has events at World Arena and the U.S. Air Force Academy. Visit the website for more information.

2. Don't forget to apply through TADS for the Diocesan tuition assistance. We will reimburse the fee on your August tuition payment if you do not qualify for assistance. This year, we are receiving over $99,000 in tuition assistance through this program. The application and paperwork must be completed by April 15, 2021. Visit www.mytads.com for the on-line application.

3. You will receive $500 off your tuition when you refer a family and they enroll at SPCS for the 2021-2022 school year. Receive $250 off your tuition when you refer a Preschool family.

4. The SCRIP program. Each family is required to earn $150 a school year in SCRIP money. Use the reloadable Safeway Cards for your food purchases. Many of our experienced families have some serious SCRIP skills and are willing to share their talents! Any amount after that goes toward your tuition for the next school year. Some families have earned over $2,000 towards their tuition. 

God Bless,
