Both St. Patrick School and the Diocese of Grand Rapids offer financial aid to eligible families. Parents must complete a financial aid application annually to be considered for financial assistance.
If your family experiences a change in circumstances during the school year, please speak to our principal, Scott Czarnopys. Part of our mission at St. Patrick School is to make Catholic education available and affordable for families in our community.
The parish finance council works closely with our pastor, Fr. Tom Cavera, to ensure that the parish and school remain financially healthy. Their responsibilities include the following:
Approving annual budgets
Reviewing special expenditure requests
Overseeing capital improvements
Setting annual tuition rates
Allocating funds for financial aid
These meetings are typically closed to the public, but anyone who wishes to have an in-person discussion with the board may request to attend. Please contact the school or parish office with your request to be placed on the agenda.
The School Board consists of individuals who are either parents, alumni/parents of alums, leaders within the community, or parishioners who collectively meet bi-monthly to support decisions surrounding the school’s strategic planning, formulation, and evaluation of various policies, as well as alignment regarding overall financial operations.
For more details, please visit the School Board Webpage.
