Tuition and Financial Aid

Tuition at St. Mary's School is among the lowest of any non-public or parochial school in the Capital District. This is possible due to the tremendous fundraising efforts of our Parent Teacher Organization as well as the vast financial support we receive from our parish, St. Mary of the Assumption.
