VIP POINTS
The parish of St. John the Baptist provides extra subsidy for the operation of the school. This subsidy is around $75,000 per year. For this reason, school families are asked to help with Bingo to keep the tuition affordable. Each family is asked to provide one or two workers to help with Bingo for 4.5 hours on a Sunday evening every eight weeks. With this help, St. John’s is able to provide approximately $100,000 each year. For those who object to Bingo, other projects that assist the school and its students can fulfill the 120 VIP points needed to help with tuition. New parents/guardians to St. John are required to collect 80 VIP points; returning families are required to complete 120 VIP points. VIP Points start in June and should be reported every 4 months. A VIP Points report (with additional ways of attaining points) is sent out in September, January, and May. Parents/guardians who fail to make their points or report them are asked to pay an additional $15.00 per point under the 80/120 VIP Points required.
