We understand that planning and investing in Christian education requires a significant commitment from our families. It is the goal of the HMS School Board to set the school charges as low as can be reasonably consistent with good business principles for the maintenance and quality of Christ-centered education.
It is our privilege to provide an exceptional Christian education at HMS. Our operating budget is based on the support of three primary sources: The Rocky Mountain Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, Campion Church (constituent Church), and annual tuition. Subsidies keep tuition as low as possible.
On this page you will find financial documents, contact information, and payment instructions to complete your child’s tuition for the school year. If you need assistance, or have any questions, please contact our office, we are happy to assist in any way.
HMS uses Blackbaud Tuition Management as our tuition portal. Please click here to set up a new account or access your account.
