People's Club
The People’s Club is the fundraising arm of St. Mary’s School and is led by the families of our students. There are a number of different fundraisers to support throughout the year. Being a private school, St. Mary’s does not receive the funding that the public schools receive, and relies heavily on our fundraising efforts to help with the contribution to the school budget, and to keep tuition costs low.
Over the past years, your support has:
• Strengthened school operations by helping cover essential expenses such as salaries and utilities.
• Expanded classroom budgets, giving teachers the flexibility to purchase resources that enhance the students learning experience.
• Funded field trips, providing hands-on experiences that bring education to life beyond the classroom walls.
• Supported our staff, helping us express appreciation for the incredible dedication of those who teach, guide, and care for our students.
Beyond meeting current needs, your continued generosity is building a foundation for the future. Because of the success of our fundraisers, we have been able to establish and grow funds dedicated to sustaining our school long-term, allowing us to plan ahead with confidence, and helping ensure St. Mary’s School remains strong for generations of students to come.
