Our Lady Queen of Martyrs School

71 Arden Street, New York, NY 10040

Education carries many costs – technology upgrades, resource materials, personnel, building maintenance, utilities – all with increasing price tags.  Tuition is significantly lower than the actual cost to educate each child due to the commitment of the Archdiocese and His Eminence Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan to Catholic education.   Teachers, administrators and staff work together to ensure that our schools are Christ-centered, academically excellent, and welcoming communities, preparing students to be life-long learners and leaders energized by fidelity to Christ, the Church, and one another. 

Tuition (K-8)
The annual tuition for 2020-2021 is $5,150.00. The Archdiocesan Family Grant is $ 675.00 per eligible child. 

Please refer to the table below to identify your family’s annual tuition obligation.
