The original certificate will be copied and returned. 

Admission Policy 

St. Juliana School does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, sex, national or ethnic origin. We  accept children whose parents seek to have them admitted for the purpose of religious and academic  formation. We educate all students within the limits of the school’s educational program. Since we are a  parish school, priority is given in the following order: to current school families, participating  parishioners, transfer students from other Catholic schools, children of non-parishioners, and transfer  students from non-Catholic schools. 

If the enrollment number exceeds the admission number we will take all parishioner applications and  date and time of completed registration requirements. All applicants will be reviewed and parents will  be notified of their child(ren)’s admission status as soon as possible. 

Tuition and Fees Agreement 

Participating or Non-Participating: St. Juliana School operates as a ministry of St. Juliana Parish to  provide a quality Catholic education for the children of our community. The cost to educate one child is  more than $7,000 per year, which is covered in part by tuition and fees, auxiliary group donations and  school/parish fund-raising activities. Discounts are given for multiple children within one family. Participating families are registered parishioners who make an annual contribution commitment through  

Sunday, Easter and Christmas offerings. Non-participating families opt to pay a commensurately higher  tuition rate.
