St. Mary’s School would like to acknowledge the St. Mary’s School Trust for once again providing our students with $25,000 in tuition assistance grants. Since its founding in 1994, the Trust has provided over $330,0000 of tuition support to the families of St. Mary’s School. This year’s funding comes through the generosity of the following grants:
The Margaret & Jacob Mesar Memorial Grant
The Steve & Laura Oleksak Memorial Grant
The Reverend William E. Dudack Memorial Grant
The Francine M. Sider Memorial Grant
The gifts help to keep our student body thriving. We appreciate the support the Trust has given us over the years. If you would like to contribute to any of the named scholarships or the Trust’s general fund, you can contact Richard Sider at r.sider@cox.net.
THANK YOU for your awesome support of our 5 into 15 campaign!
We are so grateful for our families, faculty and alumni for meeting our challenge.
Our final total came to $12,000 earning our $5,000 anonymous donation, bringing our grand total to $17,000! WOW!!
We still have more to raise for our total annual fundraising goal of $75,000. It is not too late, donate today!

Exciting military promotion in our SMS community
A military promotion is a significant achievement in a service member’s career. It’s a testament to their commitment, mastery of duties and skills, and to the service member’s leadership capabilities.
Earlier this month, one of our families' parent was recognized and promoted to Lieutenant Colonel. He is Commander of the 14th Civil Support Team. His children and wife pinned him during the ceremony.
Congratulations and thank you so much for your dedicated service!
Special thanks
