TUITION and FEES
Allentown Central Catholic High School, Inc. (ACCHS) makes every effort to provide an affordable, quality,
Christ-centered education for our students. The cost to educate each student exceeds the total tuition and fees that
are assessed to each student’s account. This means every student is granted a discounted tuition.
ALLENTOWN CENTRAL CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL
2026 – 2027 School Tuition and Fees
Tuition and fees approved by the Board of Governance on March 19, 2026.
PAYMENT OPTIONS
Each family must set up a student account and choose a payment plan through Simple Tuition Systems. One-pay, two-pay, quarterly, monthly (based on 10 months starting in August) and bi-weekly payment plans are offered through STS. Creating an STS account and selecting a payment plan must be completed by May 1, 2026. No student will receive class schedules if these two steps are not completed. STS does not charge a fee for families who select a one-time Annual Payment. STS charges the following (one-time) for extended Payment Plans: Semi-Annual – $15, Quarterly – $30, Monthly/Bi-weekly – $45.
FINANCIAL AID and BLOCS REQUIREMENT
The Diocese of Allentown recently formalized a partnership with Business Leadership Organized for Catholic Schools, BLOCS, to help administer the scholarship program for our Diocesan Schools. Through this new partnership, ACCHS is able to access additional Pennsylvania tax credit funding to assist more of our families.The total cost to educate each student is more than $13,300 (for the 2026-2027 school year). ACCHS discounts this cost to keep the total tuition and fees as affordable as possible for our families through the tax credit program. Because of this, ALL families with students enrolled at Allentown Central Catholic are required to complete the scholarship application regardless of their need for additional financial assistance. ACCHS does offer financial aid to those families that qualify based on the financial aid application. Financial aid applications must be submitted each year through the STS website. Maximum consideration for financial aid will be extended to all families that have verified their completed applications by June 1, 2026.
