The Fund for Saint Mary School                             2019 - 2020

Kindness matters.  It’s the friendly smile our students see when they are greeted by our Administrators and Faculty Members as they enter Saint Mary School each day. Or, a classmate’s extended hand to hold as we recite the “Our Father” during School Mass.  It’s
the expression of gratitude shown as our 7^th and 8^th Graders serve our parishioners and community guests during our annual Senior Luncheon.  We conclude each school day together in prayer as we recite “God Made Us a Family.  We need one another, we love one another, we forgive one another, we work together, we play together, we worship together…together we serve our God.”  These simple acts and long-standing school traditions remind our
students that we are all members of our Saint Mary School family and kindness,
compassion, gratitude and service guide our actions every day.

While tuition covers the essential expenses associated with educating the student,
The Fund for Saint Mary School provided financial resources within the last year to support
the following:

• Granted over $24,000 in need-based tuition assistance for our families unable to meet the entire tuition obligation
• Funded the purchase of the Empowering Writers program to enhance writing proficiency, reading fluency and comprehension skills across all grades
• Fortified the Saint Mary School Endowment to sustain the enduring viability of our school to benefit future generations of engaged learners

We ask our parents, alumni, alumni parents, grandparents and friends of Saint Mary School
to support our Mission to provide our students with a Catholic academic foundation that fosters kindness, character, integrity and authentic acts of service.   

We are blessed and grateful for all gifts.  Gifts postmarked by December 31, 2019 are tax deductible for this year.
