Financial Aid & Tuition

The total operating cost to educate a student at Divine Savior Catholic School exceeds the tuition amount. Fundraising efforts both school-sponsored and grant/donor solicited – including our Annual Fund, the spring auction event, and the September apple pie sale – are important elements that offset the true cost of a Divine Savior education.
