Donation and Support
Your gift benefits our students today and our leaders of tomorrow.

Student with Microscope

St. Nicholas School is always seeking better ways to expand the educational opportunities offered to our students, to further maintain our high academic standards, and update our equipment and facilities. Like nearly every private school, we require additional funds beyond the revenue provided by the annual tuitions to accomplish these goals. We must rely on fundraising and donations. Our parent organization, the St. Nicholas Boosters Club, accomplishes much through their annual fundraising activities. You can help us accomplish much more through a tax-deductible donation or by participating in our scrip program. The following are ways you can support St. Nicholas School:

The Annual Fund

Contributions to the Annual Fund support all areas of the operating budget and enhance the education of our children.

The Annual Fund provides:
  • Competitive salaries and benefits for faculty
  • Quality classroom resources and materials, including computer technology and software, as well as new updated textbooks
  • Expanded athletic program
  • Extracurricular art and music
  • Maintenance and repair of school facilities and grounds
  • Unforeseen expenses that may arise throughout the year

The Scholarship Fund

St. Nicholas School strives to attract a diverse student body of the best students. Our scholarship program aims to support this effort and provide aid to deserving students who might not otherwise be able to afford a St. Nicholas School education.

The Endowment Fund

Endowment funds provide a strong financial base for the school and ensure its future financial security. Interest income is generated from the principal fund to be used as needed to attract and retain outstanding faculty or further support the operating budget as specified above under Annual Fund.
