The long range plan for archdiocesan elementary schools calls for parishes to provide financial support for the children of supporting families. A minimum contribution of $350 per family has been set as a reasonable expectation of support for all St. Rita School families. Parents who would like to be eligible for the Supporting Family Tuition Reduction and early registration for 2020 – 2021 must have made the minimum contribution of $400 to St. Rita Parish by December 31, 2020.
Non-Catholic families and families not meeting the parish support requirements are classified as Non-Catholic and Non-supporting and are charged the tuition rate according to their classification. Non-supporting families, whether they have students currently enrolled at St. Rita School or are new to the school, must register during open registration on a first-come basis.
Parents must commit to work at least three hours in an assigned booth during the St. Rita Pecan Festival to avoid the $400 Festival Support Fee. Parents who do not fulfill this commitment must pay the support fee by December 1 for their child (ren) to continue to attend St. Rita School.
