Why Give

Your generosity helps make a St. Catherine education possible.

Tuition covers approximately 80% of the cost of educating each student. The remaining 20% is made possible through the generosity of families, alumnae, benefactors and friends of St. Catherine.

St. Catherine of Siena Academy is a 501 (c) 3 organization. Our tax ID is #90-0530541.

Why Give?

A St. Catherine education forms the whole woman academically, spiritually and personally. Your support helps provide the people, programs and opportunities that allow our STARS to grow in faith, pursue excellence and discover their gifts.

Faith
Supporting a Catholic education rooted in the teachings of the Church.

Excellence
Providing strong academics, faculty development, technology, athletics and the arts.

Opportunity
Helping make a St. Catherine education accessible to more young women through tuition assistance.

Community
Strengthening the school that generations of families, alumnae and supporters call home.

Is the cost of education the same thing as tuition?

The cost of educating one St. Catherine student and the rate of tuition are not the same amount. Tuition only covers about 80% of the cost of a St. Catherine education. The 20% gap is covered through the money raised by the Annual Fund.

Why does St. Catherine Academy not charge the full cost of education?

SCA wants to remain accessible to every family that would like to provide their daughter with a quality Catholic education. Charging the full cost of education would make St. Catherine Academy inaccessible to many who would choose to send their daughters to our school.

Is the tuition gap normal?

Yes! Most private schools, both secular and religious, have a tuition gap in order to keep their education accessible.

Who gives to St. Catherine of Siena Academy?

Teachers, staff, board members, present and past parents, alumnae, and community members contribute to SCA. Participation by present families is essential to gaining support from outside community members because a gift to the Annual Appeal as well as our signature events displays confidence in how the mission is being carried out.
