Fund a Griffin
Father McGivney Catholic High School upholds a proud tradition of providing a quality Catholic education to area students. It is our belief that every student who desires a Catholic high school education should receive it at FMCHS, regardless of their economic situation. Your gift to the FMCHS Annual Appeal helps us provide scholarships for families who want to make a Catholic education a priority but need financial support to make it happen.
The spirit of FMCHS is to see each student for who they are, celebrate their successes, and nurture their Catholic faith so they can go out into the world and do God’s work. Our Catholic faith is central to every aspect of the high school experience. The motto of FMCHS is “Serving the Culture of Life,” and we strive to instill the importance of service to the community and family. This past year, students gave 5,000 hours in service, living their faith and modeling the teachings of Jesus Christ. Academically, FMCHS offers a college preparatory curriculum featuring the progressive use of technology and opportunities for dual credit courses through St. Louis University. With 14 IHSA sports and more than 25 different clubs, students are able to find their niche to flourish and grow.
SInce 2012, our school population has grown from just 19 students to more than 325 students enrolled for the fall. Approximately 45% of these students will receive financial assistance. Your gift to the Annual Appeal will allow us to close this gap for our students, enhance the Catholic education available for current and future students, and keep the cost of a Catholic high school education affordable for all.
Please prayerfully consider a gift to the 2022 Annual Appeal and know that the students, staff and faculty of Father McGivney Catholic High School continue to include you in our prayers of gratitude, and always, IT IS GREAT TO BE A GRIFFIN!
