A Letter from Our Principal

Thank you so much for investing in St. Patrick Catholic School.  By participating in this year's 60th Anniversary Diamond Auction and Gala-attending, offering your time, bidding on items, or making a donation in support of the evening-100% of our students benefit from your generosity.

The energy in the room is going to be palatable as we join together to enjoy a celebratory night that advances the mission of our school: to foster a community where students grow in faith and knowledge in order to bring Christ's light to the world.  Many of the programs and school enhancements have been a direct result of contributions from families and friends who have partnered with St. Pats.  I thank you in advance for your gifts of time and treasure, so St. Patrick Catholic School may continue to deliver an excellent Catholic education for our students.   We help shape the next generation of faithful, bold and compassionate leaders. I am excited to continue our work together to fulfill God's vision for our students and our school.  The school we have today is the result of dedicated supporters that came before us.  It is our responsibility to ensure that future generations can benefit from all that St. Patrick Catholic School has to offer.  We are blessed to have generous and supportive members of our community.

Thank you for being part of this community of supporters who are so essential to ensuring a thriving St. Pats.  We look forward to seeing you at our 60th Anniversary Diamond Gala.  Please join me in praying for the success of this event and for a fruitful school year.

For all of the ways you give, I offer my heartfelt gratitude and appreciation. 

Thank you for being the light!

A Message from Our Pastor

Welcome to our annual Auction to benefit St. Patrick Catholic School. We are very proud of our school and I realize it takes many dedicated people to make it such a vibrant community of faith and a strong institution of learning. At this time, I am very grateful to all who have contributed to make this annual auction a success.

I hope you enjoy this evening and even find some bargains along the way. People usually have a lot of fun. At the same time, this is an important fundraiser for our school. Your participation helps us to maintain a high-quality education at an affordable price.

Thank you for supporting St. Patrick Catholic School and have a great time.
