What is the Annual Fund?
St. Michael’s Annual Fund is a yearly campaign to raise funds in support of the School’s operating budget. As we continue to seek gifts to support the ambitious goals of the Middle School project, it is important to sustain the growth of the Annual Fund. Your support ensures a dynamic and competitive learning environment for our students.

Middle School Campaign
St. Michael’s Middle School has always addressed the distinctiveness of early adolescence with a curriculum that is challenging, rigorous and designed to prepare students for high school. Students are given opportunities to participate in a variety of activities that encourage personal growth and development. The combination of academic excellence and opportunities for participation in leadership roles allows students to develop skills and interests which will serve them well in the future. Now, a transforming gift of land places St. Michael’s foundation of excellence in an exciting new environment, the W.E. and Dale Harman Singleton Campus.
Development
St. Michael’s Episcopal School is committed to academic excellence nourished by Christian values in a safe and caring environment. Students benefit from improved facilities and educational opportunities made possible by preceding generations of families making gifts to the Annual Fund and capital campaigns. To sustain St. Michael’s academic excellence, time-honored traditions and affordable tuition, today’s families must continue to embrace the tradition of charitable giving that makes the difference between an ordinary education and a St. Michael’s education. We are most appreciative of our many donors who support our funding needs and goals each year.

Supporting St. Michael’s
Like most independent schools, St. Michael’s tuition does not meet all of the school’s needs. Additional resources are necessary to provide teachers with the tools and the facilities necessary to offer students a dynamic and competitive learning environment. The Development Office spearheads specific fundraising campaigns to provide these additional resources. Parents, alumni, grandparents, parents of alumni and friends of St. Michael’s are asked to support these initiatives to supplement the operating budget. The School also seeks philanthropic support from foundations and corporations.
St. Michael’s Parents’ Association sponsors fundraising projects, such as the annual auction and Magic Dragon Day, throughout the year. Money raised from these projects provides support for specific activities.
St. Michael’s Episcopal School is a 501 ( c ) (3) organization. All gifts are tax deductible according to Internal Revenue Service regulations.
