WE VALUE EDUCATION
We believe in the value of an Immaculate Conception Cathedral School education and are committed to make ICCS an accessible option to everyone. No family pays 100% of the cost to educate a child. Through the generous support of donors, fundraising events, ICCS Trust Fund, and other initiatives, the cost of tuition has already been supplemented for every student.
