Re-Enrollment Gets Re-Vamped

Be sure to review your packet as soon as you receive it to take advantage of special incentives this year! 
  • Get a 3% discount on your tuition just for paying your registration and turning in your enrollment forms by 2/29.
  • Get a 2% discount on your tuition for registering by 3/31.
  • If you pay your tuition in full by June 1st, and you have registered by 2/29 or 3/31, you get an additional 2-3% off your total tuition.   

These incentives were designed to give parents a break in their tuition and will also help Calvary get an idea of the enrollment for 2012-2013.

Calvary received a check for $858.24 from Savemart, Lucky's and Foodmax.  This amount is from our parents, congregation and friends of Calvary using their Shares card.  Thank you!!

If you do not have a Shares card, you can pick one up in the office, or call to have one sent home with your student.  These cards contain our school's id number only; no personal information from you is needed.
