Reminder from our business office(As noted on page 19 in the St. Benedict Student/Parent handbook.)

Tuition Students whose accounts are in arrears are subject to being prohibited from taking exams. Outstanding financial obligations will prohibit the school from releasing grades/transcripts. According to TSSAA rules, any student athlete whose tuition account is more than 60 days in arrears is automatically ineligible from participating. If there are extenuating circumstances that prevent a family from following the tuition schedules, these circumstances must be discussed with the Business Office before the scheduled due date of the tuition payment. Please email our business office at hurtk@sbaeagles.org if you need to request an updated tuition statement or sign on to your FACTS agreement to review your payment plan.
