Saint Joseph School Fundraisers


 
School Fundraisers Schedule

Saint Joseph School tuition covers approximately 64% of the total per pupil cost each year. From where does the remaining 36% come?
Much of it comes from the generosity of the Saint Joseph Church Parish subsidy. Many dollars each year come from Alumni, Current and Past Parents, and other interested members of the community through the School Advancement program. And a substantial portion comes from the fundraisers by the parents and students of Saint Joseph School. 

Your participation in these volunteer and fundraising events is expected. Please be generous with your time and your talents! Set an example of Christian service for your children. Below, please find a tentative schedule for some of the major fundraising events we have planned for the 2010-2011 school year. Please be quick to volunteer to assist the wonderful parents who have volunteered to chair the events below! You'll have fun - I promise! If you are interested in planning future events, consider running for an office on the executive committee of the Home School Association! We welcome your help!
