QA
Will tuition change for the new school year?
St. Martin’s is committed to delivering a robust teaching and learning program regardless of the environment necessitated by the pandemic. Like all non-profit organizations, the vast majority of our annual budget is dedicated to our employees. We are wholeheartedly dedicated to maintaining the continuity and highquality of a St. Martin’s education experience for our students.
Should virtual learning become a reality for an extended period of time due to COVID-19, the Board of Trustees and the school will explore the possibility of a tiered tuition discount for that portion of the 2020-21 school year.
Will there be reimbursements for services not used?
Should the 2020-21 school year necessitate virtual learning, any unused services or fees (Explorers, Enrichment, lunch and the Dunwoody bus) will be credited accordingly. More than $200,000 in fees were credited to SMES families for unused services in the spring of 2020.
Can families customize payment plans?
We invite you to reach out to our business office to discuss your individual circumstances to discuss alternative tuition payment plan options.
Is purchase of tuition reimbursement insurance still an option?
Yes. St. Martin’s families will be notified with details for purchasing a tuition refund plan option until July 31, 2020. Our goal is to ensure that our community remains intact and that we successfully navigate the COVID-19 crisis as one St. Martin’s family. The school encourages families to take advantage of this opportunity.
