The funding of our elementary schools is comprised of tuition, parish financial support and fund raising. All three are at risk with the impact of COVID-19.
Our dedicated principals, teachers and staff continue to work diligently and in collaboration with our diocesan Director of Catholic Schools and our regional administrators to deliver a quality Catholic education and continue to create loving, faith-filled communities, albeit remotely, keeping our children engaged and challenged. They are doing an amazing job. We are taking steps to reduce non-essential expenses, but must do all we can to assure the financially viability of our schools.
We know that a Catholic education is a transformative education, one that helps students grow in mind, heart, and spirit. A Catholic education is a lasting gift that provides our children a strong foundation for a lifetime of service to God, to the Church and to community.
We ask that you to prayerfully consider investing in the future of a student through a gift to our Catholic schools. As we witness, each day in the success stories of our schools and students, the return on such an investment has no limits.
All charitable contributions to support our parishes and schools are great blessings and may be made in the following ways:
We are one family of faith. When one part of our family suffers, we come together to help alleviate the pain of another. Please support our schools and parishes who are experiencing the effects of COVID-19. Together we can rise up and make a difference in our parish and school communities!
