Financial Aid
Affordability
We have a long history of academic excellence at St. Anne-Pacelli Catholic School. Recent athletic achievements, fine arts merit, and the continued additions of a variety of clubs and organizations continue to shine a spotlight on our school. For these reasons and many more, we think an investment in St. Anne-Pacelli is a wise decision!
Tuition Assistance
To be considered for needs-based tuition assistance in the 2025-2026 school year, students must be accepted for admission and families must complete the FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment at https://online.factsmgt.com/signin/3CDW1 by March 1, 2025. FACTS is a well-established, third-party service that keeps financial information private and secure. They calculate a family's ability to pay on behalf of St. Anne-Pacelli Catholic School. When you apply in FACTS, you will be asked to upload financial information such as your Federal Income Tax Return and W-2s. If you do not file federal taxes, you may indicate that in the FACTS application.
Watch this 2 minute video to learn what to expect when completing your FACTS Grant & Aid Financial Needs Assessment (the video's password is Application).
Once the FACTS application is complete and the information verified by the tax documents, a report is provided to St. Anne-Pacelli Catholic School for review by the Tuition Assistance Committee. FACTS will send an email notification once a tuition assistance award is made by the Tuition Assistance Committee.
We make every effort to meet a family's demonstrated financial need; however, we are not able to make full-tuition awards. The deadline to apply for tuition assistance is March 1, 2025. After that date, applications for aid are subject to funds availability. The FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment must be completed each year. Students may receive both scholarship and tuition assistance awards.
Families who receive needs-based tuition assistance are required to contribute 20 hours of volunteer service to the school during the school year in which the assistance is received.
Note: Records will not be released for registered or enrolled students to other institutions unless St. Anne-Pacelli Catholic School receives withdrawal papers prior and any withdrawal penalties are paid. Exceptions are seniors going into college and records are being sent to colleges upon request.

Military Child Care in Your Neighborhood: The Defense Department recognizes that quality, affordable child care is critical for military families with children. That’s why the department’s fee assistance program Military Child Care in Your Neighborhood, also known as MCCYN, has recently expanded its child care program eligibility requirements for civilian providers in the local community. When on-installation child care is unavailable or when families are geographically dispersed from a military installation, MCCYN helps eligible families access child care that meets their needs and reduces the out-of-pocket expenses for community child care. For more information about MCCYN, visit Child Care Aware® of America.
