Through TADS, St. Mary of the Assumption School offers the following payment methods.

Automatic payment from a bank account
Automatic payment via a credit card
Payment dates: 10^th, 15^th, 20^th, 25^th

Late Tution:
If payment is not received by chosen payment date, a late fee of $5 as well as a TADS follow-up fee of $35 are assessed. A $35 fee applies for failed autodebit and failed checks. Any family two tuition payments behind will be given thirty days notice to pay the tuition which is due or to find an alternative placement for their child or children. Arrangements can be made with the principal and/or pastor if a hardship exists.

Procedures of Non-Payment of Tuition:
Parents unable to pay full tuition and fees will be asked to make partial payment and give some form of additional service to the school. Students may be dismissed from school because of parent inability to pay if the parents do not follow the terms of the hardship agreement they sign with the pastor and principal.
Steps to be followed for parents who are unable to pay the published tuition:

Parents make an appointment with the principal to discuss the hardship.
The principal drafts an agreement for the parents which clearly indicates the amount of tuition that will be paid on a specific day each month and the additional service that will be rendered. Both principal and parents sign the agreement.
The agreement is reviewed at the end of each trimester. If the amount of the tuition indicated on the agreement has not been received by the school according to the terms of the agreement, parent will be asked to withdraw their child from the school permanently at this time.

Terms of the agreement terminate at the end of a school year. Parent must follow the same procedure at the time of registration for an additional school year.
