Advancement

”Advancement is the meaningful involvement of people in our mission and vision for the future.”

On September 4, 2008, St. John’s Catholic School celebrated 100 years of providing excellence in Catholic education to the Hot Springs area. As we continue to build on this great tradition, we appreciate the support and sacrifices of so many over our long history.

The mission of the St. John’s Catholic School Advancement Office is to create, plan, implement, and sustain an advancement process that will support the ministry of St. John’s Catholic School. The SJS Advancement Office provides an opportunity for alumni, parents of alumni, faculty and staff, parishioners, and community supporters who value Catholic education to make a donation that will have a real impact on St. John’s both now and in the future. Gifts are used to keep tuition affordable, to encourage excellence in education through improved recruitment and retention, and to provide needed improvements in technology and student materials. This support will preserve, strengthen, and build on the tradition of faith-filled education at St. John’s School.

Gifts to St. John’s School, no matter how large or how small, make a difference in the lives of our students. Our hope and prayer are that you are pleased with the exciting things taking place at SJS, and with your help, we can continue this momentum together as we advance the mission of St. John’s Catholic School.
