SJGS Excellence Fund
About the Fund
The SJGS Excellence Fund is an annual fund that supports the essential pieces of Saint Joseph Grade School — the pieces that help us live out our mission of educating hearts and minds in the Holy Cross tradition, making God known, loved, and served.
Your gift to the SJGS Excellence Fund will provide support for teachers and staff, new learning materials, professional development for teachers, curriculum and program enhancements, faith development and service learning initiatives, enrichment and extracurricular opportunities, facilities maintenance, as well as tuition assistance.
Each contribution helps narrow the gap between tuition and cost per student, allowing us to continue to grow and improve each year. Support from our many generous donors makes a real, lasting impact on Saint Joseph Grade School and our students. Thank you for your generosity this year!
