Now, through the Catholic School Support 365 Fund, and with your generous participation and donations, your contributions will not only support tuition needs and ensure students are provided the opportunity to grow as missionary disciplines, but will support efforts to improve our classrooms, keep our facilities in top shape, and support the amazing teachers and staff who make our Catholic education so special to students.If you are already a donor and wish to update your donation, please call the donor services department at 602-354-2238
