Tuition

St. Junipero Serra Catholic School offers several payment options to our families, allowing for maximum flexibility. After the non-refundable deposit (and new student fee, if applicable), the balance may be paid using one of the following installment plans. Please note that all monthly payment plans begin in July of each new school year.

• One annual payment due in July each year
• Two semi-annual payments due in July and December each year
• 10 monthly payments
• 11 monthly payments
• 12 monthly payments

Scrip Rebate Program
You can reduce your Tuition Cost through our Scrip Rebate Program.  Families receive 50% of EVERY scrip rebate dollar as a credit toward tuition costs.  Additionally, the remaining 50% of EVERY scrip rebate dollar will be recognized as a tax-deductible donation to St. Junipero Serra Catholic School. There is no limit to earned rebates which equates to extensive savings for our families!

529 Education Savings Plan Can Now Help With SJSC Tuition
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 allows families to withdraw up to $10,000 tax-free from their 529 savings plan to pay for private school tuition. These educational savings plans were traditionally used by families to invest and save for their children's college tuition. This new law, which became effective January 1, 2018, opens up this tax benefit to families for K-12 private school tuition. We encourage all SJSC families to check with their tax professional or financial adviser for more information about this new law.  

Our dynamic St. Serra community thrives on our parents' time, talent, and treasure. To best manage these resources, families with at least one student in grades TK through 8 are required to perform forty (40) hours of volunteer service per school year. There are a multitude of volunteer opportunities which meet this requirement and allow you to get involved in this great community. Each family is responsible for recording their service hours online via the FACTS SIS system.

• 3 students: 5% for all students
• 4 students: 10% for all students

• 6 or more students: 25% for all students
