Annual Giving Campaign - October 2009

St. Mark strives to offer a variety of programs that enrich our students’ lives and prepare them for their high school years and beyond. Students of all ages benefit from programs including excellent athletics, academics, and fine arts opportunities. As in most private schools, tuition alone does not cover the full cost of these programs and continuous improvements. Annual Giving Campaign gifts directly benefit ALL students at St. Mark (from infants to 8th grade) by providing the funding to maintain excellent standards in classroom materials, technology infrastructure, software upgrades, curriculum upgrades, improvements to playgrounds, fields, and facilities, safety and security; for supporting faculty salaries and benefits at levels so that we attract and retain experienced teachers and provide continuous faculty development programs; for funding specialized faculty and staff positions such as high quality, certified Art instruction, Spanish instruction, and to meet basic needs such as electricity and air conditioning.

These programs exist because of the generous support of school and church families and friends. For all that we Give Thanks Unto the Lord!

The Annual Giving Campaign drive is held in October of each year, but you can support St. Mark Lutheran School with your gift at any time! Every donation, large or small, is very important because it demonstrates a commitment to helping our school to improve and serve you better.
