Remembering your past while helping our future
It is a very exciting time here at your old school, Niagara Catholic. Seniors are preparing to take their final exams, celebrate Class Day, attend their Baccalaureate Mass and Graduation. Students in grades 7-11 are finishing their classes and preparing for their own exams. At the same time plans are underway for the 2013-2014 School Year. Registration continues and our enrollment is increasing.
Remember your first day of school here? Finding your classes? Meeting new friends? Wondering what sports you should play? All our students are experiencing those same emotions. We hope that you look back at your years in high school as a great time in your life. In the world we live in now Catholic education is more important than ever. With the tuition of $6,950, almost 75% of our students rely on tuition assistance and/or scholarships to be able to afford Niagara Catholic. Their parents also work on bingo teams and volunteer at the school in many ways, so we assure you that the effort is definitely there on their part to make NC possible for their children. The bottom line is once a year we really do need your help to keep Niagara Catholic moving forward.
We ask you to please look at the giving levels below and choose one that makes you feel the best! For some of you that may mean $1,000 or more, for others $100. Whatever you can give will help keep your old school going strong and help a student be able to make the same memories here that you did. Even if every alum, including our social-media obsessed young ones, gave $50 - less than a dollar a week - it would make a HUGE difference for your school. Keep in mind all gifts are 100% tax-deductible! Whatever you can do, be assured that our students appreciate and benefit from your support. Our primary goals are to improve technology, which is sorely lacking, and to add programs, so every penny is vital. We are in the process of a $225,000 campaign to get our students laptop work stations with sofware, so your help would be greatly appriciated. If you have given in the past, could you possibly increase your donation this year?
God bless you for your anticipated support,
The Niagara Catholic Board of Trustees
