Annual Fund 17-18
FOR GIRLS. FOR LIFE.
The true cost of a St. Mary's education is well above the amount of tuition; in fact, the Annual Fund covers 7% of the school's operating budget each year. That means every girl benefits from the Annual Fund, every day. The 2016-2017 Annual Fund raised $1,039,540.
Our entire community — parents, alumnae, grandparents and friends of the school — understands the vital importance this funding plays in educating our students. Since 2010, parent, alumnae, and faculty giving has eclipsed national benchmark participation percentages which have averaged:
PARENT PARTICIPATION: 90%
ALUMNAE PARTICIPATION: 50%
FACULTY: 99.9%
