Annual Fund

The St. Andrew’s motto is, “We will find a way or we will make a way.” It is a testimony to the resilience and adaptability the school community has demonstrated for the past 75 years.
A gift to the St. Andrew’s Annual Fund is the first gift we ask of alumni, parents, parents of graduates, grandparents, faculty, staff, trustees, and friends. Annual gifts to the St. Andrew’s Annual Fund provide unrestricted funds to support the full range of programs offered by our school. They make the difference between good and great at St. Andrew’s. They allow us to make choices rather than compromises.

When you contribute to the St. Andrew’s Annual Fund, you provide operational support for academics, arts, athletics, technology, and financial aid; you help St. Andrew’s attract and retain outstanding faculty and staff; and you support enhancements and maintenance for our beautiful campuses.

The St. Andrew's Annual Fund offers an opportunity for our entire community to come together in support of the School. It bridges the difference between tuition and the actual cost of educating each student accounting for 4-5% of the school’s operating budget.
