TUITION FOR 2023-2024
FACTS Tuition ManagementVisitation will be switching to FACTS Tuition Management System. Information for our families will be sent out once it's available to us.
Parents support Visitation School through the use of Sunday Envelopes, tuition payments and the fundraisers.
Tuition is payable in ten equal monthly payments via FACTS Tuition Management system. School fees are applied to tuition accounts in July ($475). The first payment of the ten-payment plan is made in August and the last payment in May. We appreciate the sacrifice your family makes to pay Catholic school tuition. In addition to your family’s tuition support, Visitation parish and the school fundraisers together contribute 30% of what it costs to educate each child. Thank you for your continued support of our parish and fundraising events, without which our tuition costs would be considerably higher.

The $350 fundraising fee will be divided into two equal payments of $175 and charged to your Smart Tuition account once in the fall and once in the winter. ShopWithScrip TUITION ASSISTANCE PROGRAMWhat is ShopWithScrip
Scrip is a discounted gift certificate program established to offer participating families a way to earn tuition credit. The goal of the Scrip Program is to help families who believe in the Catholic education of their children. This is not a fundraiser, but a way to help reduce your tuition costs. How does it work? When you purchase $100 of Scrip certificates, you get $100 of purchasing power. The Scrip program purchases $100 in certificates at a discount, so the difference between what you pay Scrip for them becomes a credit on your account. For example, the discount rate on Jewel certificate is 4%. For every $100 of Jewel certificates you buy, Manna pays $96 and you get the $4 difference in tuition credit. Discounts range from 2% to 26%. When you shop at participating stores, you use the certificates or scripNow (barcode on phone) the same as you would use cash. Simply hand the certificates to the sales clerk. Who can participate? Families who have children in Visitation School and the Visitation Religious Education Program. People who have children too young to attend school can begin earning credit for the year the child enters Visitation. Also, friends and other family members like grandparents, or aunts and uncles can purchase certificates in you family's name, which would increase your tuition credit. If you no longer have children you will get a rebate check quaterly. How are the Vis Scrip Program costs covered? It is important to note that the VisScrip program collects a small percentage of your credits (not gift card costs) (7%) to cover costs of the program and for school needs. For example if you buy $500 worth of Jewel, your rebate would be $20; $1.40 would go to the school, $18.60 is credited to your tuition. On your family account in the VisScrip system, you will see the full amount of credits you have earned, but the amount actually credited to your tuition bill will reflect the 7% holdback for credits. If you are not receiving a tuition credit then you will receive a rebate on a quartely basis. Sign Up For ShopWithScrip - It’s Easy!
