Fees and Family Commitments to Our School

ENROLLMENT FEE
$200 per family
Once an offer of acceptance has been made, all PFGA families will complete their enrollment online through the FACTS Management website.  The enrollment process includes completing several online forms and establishing a payment plan, linked to a form of payment. Your family enrollment fee  will be automatically be made upon completion of the enrollment process.


FACTS ENROLLMENT FEE
$50 per family
The annual FACTS Enrollment (administrative) fee  will be taken in the month of May for all families enrolled by that point.  For new enrollments after May, the FACTS fee will be taken 1-2 weeks after the FACTS enrollment is complete.
 

CURRICULUM RESOURCE FEE
$250 per student K-8TH; $125 for Pre-K students
This fee is non-refundable and will be billed in July.

A significant outlay for curricular materials, including books, subscription fees, electronic resources, project materials, etc. is made by the school each year to support much of our curriculum. In the coming year and all subsequent years, there will be a continued investment in these types of important resources materials.  

MANDATORY FUNDRAISING/MONTHLY MONEY RAFFLE
$400 per family (or $200 for families with only one 1/2 day student.)
This fee is non-refundable and will be billed in July.

As the tuition that we charge families does not cover the actual cost of educating each child, we do lots of fundraising throughout the year to help make up that gap. Many of our fundraising events are fun and you will want to participate, but one fundraiser is MANDATORY, and that is the Monthly Money Raffle.  

Each month from September through April there will be a drawing for money prizes (1st prize = $750; 2nd prize = $200; 3rd prize = $100.) Drawings are done on the third Wednesday of the month and winners will be notified immediately.

  • Families with any full-day students will be required to purchase 40 raffle tickets at $10 each for a total of a $400 per family in fundraising fee. The tickets can then be re-sold to your family members and friends to earn the $400 back.

  • Families having ONLY ONE half-day Pre-K student will be required to purchase 20 raffle tickets at $10 each for a total of a $200 per family via the fundraising fee. The tickets can then be re-sold to your family members and friends to earn the $200 back.

Raffle tickets will be available in August, once the July payment has been processed.   Sales may begin immediately once you receive your tickets. Once the July payment is made and tickets are distributed, each family may keep monies from the raffle tickets they sell to their friends and family.  Some people choose to not sell their tickets but to use them for their own chance to win. 
 

PAYMENT PLAN AND BILLING DETAILS
Our payment plan is structured over 11 months, from July through May. Your payment plan is chosen from 2 options during the enrollment process on the FACTS Management website

  • A 10-month Payment Plan (detailed below)

  • Pay-in-full by August 15, 2024 (If all fees and tuition are paid by August 15 the family earns a $100 discount and will save the $50 FACTS Enrollment Fee)

10-month Payment Plan

  • The JULY payment will include your Curriculum Resource Fee and Family Fundraising (Raffle) Fee (These are both non-refundable)

  • All TUITION payments will be made over 10 months from August, 2024 - May, 2025.

  • You will choose which day of the month you would like your payments to be drawn out on (the 1st, 5th, or the 15th). This can be changed later by contacting Maria Teruel at mteruel@pfgacademy.org.

  • If you apply for and receive any type of financial assistance, this will be applied to your payment plan and amortized over the 10 months of your tuition payments in June. Aid does not apply to Fees.

  • There is no June payment, unless you have a “remaining service hours” payment.

  • Families must be current in their 2023-24 payments in order to be officially re-enrolled for the 2024-25 year. The final payment of this current year’s payment plan will be in May 2024.

PARENT SERVICE HOURS - 20 HOURS
The goal of the parent service hour program is to encourage a spirit of shared commitment among all families for the benefit of the school, students, and community of Pope Francis Global Academy, so we anticipate 100% participation.

Each family is required to complete 20 hours of service. This can be a combination of service by parents, grandparents, or any other adult member of the family. VIRTUS training is required for many of the volunteer jobs.

The date range for parents to complete and log in their service hours is May 1, 2024 through April 30, 2025. At least five of the hours should be from work on either one of our major fundraisers (Haunted House, Howl at the Moon, or the Wolf Run) or on one of our major enrollment events (Open House or any other group tour).  

Up to 5 hours working as a Parish volunteer at Our Lady of the Rosary (Scout leader, St. Vincent dePaul Committee, Lady’s Club, Liturgical Minister, etc., or working on a parish fundraiser) may be logged.

Families will be billed for any shortfall of their commitment at the rate of $15 per hour on their May FACTS invoice.  

It is the parent’s responsibility to check the website and the Howler regularly, and check with classroom teachers, to find volunteer projects to work on.

It is also the parent's responsibility to log all service hours on the on-line form found on the Parent Information Page of the school website.  LOG HOURS HERE.
