Enrollment and staffing move every year, so ask the school for today’s figures. Where this comes from. Something wrong? Tell us and we will fix it.

Questions to ask Mater Christi School

  1. Is the published tuition still current for 2026-27, and which fees are required on top of it?
  2. You were not on the Town tuitioning list we read. Do you take town tuitioning now, or plan to?
  3. How does the Town tuitioning award reach you, and what do families owe before it arrives?
  4. Is there a waitlist or an application deadline for my child’s grade?
  5. Do you offer financial aid, sibling discounts or payment plans?

A school is the only source for its current price and open seats. Its website or admissions office can answer these.
