The Annual Fund supports our students in ways that impact them every day. SJS is a non-profit organization that relies on tuition income, fees, parish subsidy, fundraising events, such as Blackjack and Bingo and the Crawfish Crawl, and annual contributions to pay for school operations. The Annual Fund helps to bridge the gap between tuition and the actual cost to educate each student at our current level.

In the past Annual Fund gifts have been used to purchase technology for the classrooms, enhance the school’s literacy library, provide professional development for our teachers, provide scholarships to deserving students, and to provide long-term financial support of our school.

The Annual Fund is a vehicle through which parents and others can make 100% tax deductible contributions to support our school.

No. While monetary donations are necessary for SJS to achieve its mission, you can also support Catholic education through the gifts of prayer and/or service.
