Dear St. Anne Friends,
Here at St. Anne, we are thankful for the blessing of families that entrust us with their most precious gifts and for a safe, loving and faith-filled environment in which we are able to help them excel both academically and in their faith. We also begin each day with a thankful heart for each of you as you steadfastly give through, time, talent and prayer to our school and to our students. The return on such an investment and example is immeasurable in assisting us to raise students at the highest level of academic excellence and moral compass as well as faith-filled students with a heart for giving for a lifetime. We are so blessed by each of you in all the ways you give to St. Anne.
Giving through monetary donation to our school provides donors with the most direct and significant way to impact key points of our mission not fully funded by our operating budget.
Your generous donations to our Annual Appeal also allow us to keep St. Anne both affordable and accessible to all families, those currently enrolled as well as those considering Catholic education. Annual Appeal dollars provide a silent scholarship for each of our students so that we may continue to offer a sliding tuition scale based on each family’s ability to pay.
Your faithfulness in giving to our school helps to ensure its sustainability and future growth. Please consider donating today.
Because of you, the path to college and Heaven starts here.
Many Blessings to each of you,
Alison Kiker
Since 1937, St. Anne Catholic School has served the Diocese of Beaumont, the city of Beaumont, and the surrounding communities. Our school provides a superior standard of academic excellence preparing students to succeed in a rigorous secondary education and to be faithful, lifelong Catholics. Students excel in a nurturing, safe, and traditional Catholic school climate that celebrates faith, diversity, leadership, and service to others.
The SAS Annual Fund is a coordinated effort to raise unrestricted gifts in order to ensure our school’s viability and to continue reaching its full potential. Unlike tuition and other fundraisers, your Annual Fund contribution is tax deductible to the full extent of the law.
One hundred percent of the funds raised remain in our school. Unlike public schools, St. Anne operates without the financial support of any tax base or federal entity. The current annual cost to educate a child at St. Anne is $8,835, while the average tuition collected is $6,062. Therefore, we rely on the Annual Fund to keep our school operating, to keep up with the latest trends in technology, and to remain the beacon of academic, faith formation and athletic excellence in Southeast Texas.
Every member of the St. Anne Catholic School community is asked to participate in the Annual Fund. This includes faculty, staff, administration, board members, parents, grandparents, alumni, and friends of the school. Our school board as well as our faculty and staff have participated 100% in donating to this year’s Annual Appeal.
