Tuition Information

Tuition information for the 2025-26 school year

Kindergarten - 8th Grade Tuition

The parish subsidizes the difference between the cost of educating each child and the tuition collected from each family. Last year, each child in the school was given a parish scholarship to make up the difference. 

 

Raffle Ticket Sales are for Preschool thru 8th grade families.  A minimum of sixteen tickets are to be sold per school family, or $400 per family will be added to the total tuition balance due. 

 

K-8 Non-Parishioner Tuition:  Students who are not parishioners of Christ the King pay the same tuition, fees, service hour requirement, and raffle ticket requirement as students who are parishioners.  Additionally, there is a $1500 surcharge per family. This surcharge is billed to parishes without schools so long as the family is an active parishioner. Families belonging to parishes with schools that are not Christ the King OR that are of other faith traditions will have the surcharge automatically added to their tuition bill.  


Preschool Tuition

Raffle Ticket Sales are for Preschool thru 8th grade families.  A minimum of sixteen tickets are to be sold per school family, or $400 per family will be added to the total tuition balance due.

  • Illinois Department of Revenue Education Expense Tax Credit

    Attending a Catholic school became more affordable with the passage of the Illinois Department of Revenue Education Expense Credit. Effective January 1, 2000 an Illinois resident who is a parent or legal guardian of a student (K-12, full time student under the age of 21) in an Illinois elementary or secondary school is eligible to take a tax credit on their Illinois individual income tax credit is 25 percent of the student's remaining qualified education expenses up to $500 per family.


    To claim this credit, complete the Education Expenses Credit Worksheet in the IL-1040 instructions. You must attach the written receipt you receive from the school to your tax return. If the school does not provide you with a written receipt, you must complete Schedule ED, Credit for Qualified Education Expenses.


    How much credit will you be allowed for education expenses?


    When figuring your family's education expense credit, you must first deduct the first $250 of qualified education expenses. You will then be allowed a credit of 25% for the remaining educational expenses you paid during the calendar year. Your total credit amount shall not exceed $500 in any tax year, regardless of the number of qualifying students. Any credit amount that exceeds your tax liability will not be refunded. The education expense credit must be claimed for the calendar year in which the qualified education expenses are actually paid. Any part of the education expense credit not claimed or allowed in a calendar year shall not be claimed in any other calendar year.
