Development

The role of this committee is to support excellence in Catholic education through strategic planning and communication with the various associations and organizations of St. Mary’s Academy School. The committee is a representative body comprised of parent, community and staff members whose primary responsibility is to advise the principal and pastor as to strategies for sustaining enrollment, increasing academic enrichment programs, conducting development and fundraising activities, marketing and website maintenance.

 

Share your time and talents with our students!
 
We are looking for Chairpersons, volunteers and Room Parents for the upcoming school year for assistance with school-wide events and in the classroom.  We welcome your talent and input and look forward to having you on board.  We have filled some Chairman roles, but are looking for additional leaders for some of our events. 
 
This year we were fortunate to be able to NOT increase the tuition amount for our students.  This was made possible by a small group of volunteers coordinating the fundraising efforts over the last several years.  Volunteering affects EVERY family.  It is our responsibility, as a school community, to keep potential future tuition increases at a minimum by having ALL families participate in volunteer opportunities in order to meet our annual fundraising requirement.
