Tuition/Fees/Aid | John Paul II Catholic High School

Choosing JPII for your child is a commitment to a faith-based education where Catholic ideals and identity are stressed. It is an investment in your child both academically and spiritually.

Naturally, one of the biggest concerns a family addresses when considering a private education for their child is the cost. Within the limits of our funding, we try to make a Catholic high school education available to all who desire this opportunity. Our tuition and fees are very competitive relative to other private schools in the area.

Balot Family Scholarship
The Balot Family Scholarship was established to provide rising 9th and 10th grade students access to a college preparatory Catholic education at John Paul II Catholic High School. The Balots believe all students who exhibit hard work and a strong will to succeed, regardless of faith, background, or household income, would benefit from a private education at JPII. To be eligible for the scholarship, students will be in the 9th or 10th grade in the 2020-2021 school year.

The Balot Family Scholarship covers the registration and academic materials fees ($600) and up to $7,000 of the $8,200 annual tuition for all 4 years (or 3 years for 10th graders). The student’s family is responsible for at least $100/month for 12 months each school year.
