School Pledge Drive
The yearly school pledge drive is the school’s largest source
of contributed income and allows us to fund larger projects
that cannot be met by tuition alone. Your contributions help
fund improved curriculum, staff training, building upgrades,
and many other initiatives. Each year, we set a goal of 100%
participation by St. Joseph families. This year our target
goal is $500,000. Some of the areas the donations will fund
this centennial year are:
•
Endowment
funds and financial aid
•
Reading
program
•
Curriculum
enrichment
•
Staff
inservice
•
Building
needs
•
SmartBoards
•
New play
structure
•
CYO
We
encourage all families to participate to the level their
financial means will allow.
The cost per student is approximately $2800 more than the
tuition charged for one student. The Pledge Drive provides
one of the best means to close that gap. Your contribution to
the School Pledge Drive will be recorded in the 2007-2008
Annual Report as follows:
•
Benefactors:
$3500 and above*
•
Founders:
$1500 to $3499.99*
•
Executives:
$1000 to $1499.99
•
Associates:
$500 to $999.999
•
Friends:
to $499.99
*The 2008
recognition dinner will include donors at the Founders level
and above as well as those volunteers with the highest levels
of recorded hours. Every
dollar
helps us
reach our target; 100% participation is our ultimate goal.
Thank you to all families, alumni, and friends of St. Joseph
School for your past generosity and future contributions.
