Refund Policy for Saints Peter and Paul Catholic School

At Saints Peter and Paul Catholic School, we strive to provide high-quality education and services to our students and their families. This refund policy outlines the general terms and conditions for refunds on tuition, fees, and other payments made to the school.

1. TUITION REFUNDS

1. Withdrawal Before the School Year Begins

   • If a student withdraws before the first day of school, a full refund of tuition paid will be issued, less a $500 administrative fee.

2. Withdrawal During the School Year

   • In the event of a withdrawal during the school year, we understand that each situation is unique. We encourage families to contact the school administration directly to discuss their specific circumstances and any potential refunds.

   • Refunds will be considered on a case-by-case basis, taking into account factors such as the reason for withdrawal, the timing within the school year, and any extenuating circumstances.

   • To initiate this process, please contact our Business Office at [insert contact information] to schedule a meeting with the appropriate administrator.

Prepaid lunch and transportation fees will be refunded on a prorated basis for unused services.

5. EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITY FEES
