“Our time at SSSAS taught us the importance of community. When we joined the school two decades ago, we began a journey that developed lifelong friendships, inspired new passions, and taught us how to think as global citizens. Through this journey we experienced success, learned from failure, and gained crucial life skills that are propelling us forward in our careers. We remain inspired by the talented faculty, supportive environment, and rigorous curriculum that taught us how to think and act in a community-centered way. ”
Janice Burch and Michael Platner, with daughters Charlotte ’09 and Margaret ’11

Frequently Asked Questions
Philanthropy is an important part of our Saints community. The Saints Fund provides SSSAS with unrestricted funds for use during the current fiscal year. While the budget is planned in advance and ensures our school may continue to grow our strong financial foundation, The Saints Fund allows our faculty and staff the ability to address specific needs and provide unique opportunities as they arise during the year.
The Saints Fund is made up of annual gifts from our alumni, parents, parents of alumni, grandparents, school leaders, senior students, who make their first gift in honor of a favorite teacher or coach, and our former and current faculty and staff. Last year, 1,931 Saints made a gift raising over $1.93 million through The Saints Fund. This record breaking level of support is truly something to celebrate!
Every gift, no matter the amount, has an important impact on our school. For our students, it provides resources for on and off-campus bonding experience, cutting-edge equipment to enhance the academic and athletic experience, improvements to our classrooms, performing arts stages, athletic fields, and playgrounds. For our faculty and staff, it provides industry-leading professional development, teacher requested classroom enhancements, as well as personal support through programming like Monday night dinners, bingo, and other special events.
There is no one right amount. Participating in The Saints Fund with a gift that is meaningful to you and makes you feel good about supporting SSSAS is most important! We receive gifts at every level and each gift whether it's $25 or $2500 makes an immediate impact on the lives of our students. Last year our leadership level gifts (which begin at $2500) raised nearly $1.5M for our school, while more than 50% of all gifts received were under $250.
