The Annual Fund is a yearly appeal to families and friends of Aquinas Academy to support the school's annual operating needs.  These gifts help us recruit, train, and retain talented faculty, control tuition increases, and provide tuition assistance and scholarships.

 In addition, Annual Fund contributions:

• Provide valuable resources to enrich student learning
• Maintain a vital campus ministry
• Augment faculty salaries
• Improve and beautify the campus

Aquinas Academy's financial model is similar to other private schools in the United States.  In this model, only a portion of the operating expenses are covered by tuition and fees.  The remainder of "the gap" is covered by tax-deductible gifts like yours.
