Registration Concerns · FAQ
Tight budget?
Please know that no family will be prevented from attending classes because of inability to pay. Please contact the FFF Office at 688-5760 for information.
Schedule concerns? Don't wait...save a spot!
Please register as per registration schedule (TBA) to enable us to order you child's books and materials. To make sure we have enough trained catechists, please do not wait for school, dance or sports teams to release their schedule before you register for FFF classes. It is easier for us to make necessary schedule changes for a student who is already registered than to find space for a student who waited to register after the classes have been established. If you have special circumstances and cannot make payment for registration, please contact our office as soon as possible.
Missed last year?
Please contact the FFF Office at 688-5760 as soon as possible so we can help you catch them up over the summer.
IMPORTANT: One issue we tend to have with online registration is that families hit "submit" multiple times. We want you to be aware that this can cause your card to be charged each time, and then we need to process a refund. Please hit "submit" one time only. If you feel there is a problem with the registration going through, call the office right away. We will take your information and verify your spot in your chosen program.
For any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact Michael Ruszala at mruszala@stgregs.org
