Tuition

Tuition for Gesu’s preschool and elementary school is determined by the Parish Finance Board in the early spring.  There are different rates for registered parishioners and non-parishioners.  A non-refundable registration fee is paid in the spring of each year for new students as well as current students who are re-registering for the following school year.  Parents are expected to keep current on their tuition payments based on the plan they choose to follow.   They can choose to make either quarterly or monthly (based on 10 month cycle) payments.

Parents can also opt to participate in the Gesu Annual Giving program which closes the gap between the tuition and the actual yearly cost of educating a child at Gesu.  This can also have tax benefits for parents, grandparents, or other supporters of our Gesu students.
