Who are the Friends of St. Michael School?

Friends of SMS is a community focused on raising funds specifically to enrich the educational experience of our children, their teachers and the school community.

These dollars fund classroom enrichment projects, field and service trips, fee-free SMS community building events (like the “Beach Bash” and Trunk-or-Treat/Harvest Dance), teacher appreciation and more.

2024 was a huge sucess!

Your support and generosity last year was instrumental in setting this program in the right direction! We started last year off with the goal of minimizing any out of pocket asks from parents or families throughout the year. We were able to get rid of all of the smaller fundraisers that often led to us asking the same people over and over for money and eliminated costs for attendance to our fun events.

We learned a lot about what worked last year (all the great activities that were funded and community that was built!!) and what didn't (offering shirts with sizes as a benefit when you donate - Sorry and they will be delivered to you this month!!). With a successful campaign In 2025, we strive to do even more...

We are off to a quick start in this year; please join us today!

❤️ Your St. Michael School Parents Association.
