Dear Friend of St. George,

In the midst of a global pandemic, the future has never felt so unpredictable. During these challenging times, your role and your generosity is a profound component of our community.  It’s times like this that remind us of how interconnected we all are. We can’t do it without you!

We are very excited to share our 2022 Spring Fling Gala; “Ready to Roar” a Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) sponsored event, our biggest fundraiser of the year! This event will be held Saturday, April 23, 2022, at the Estancia Del Norte with high hopes that we can hold a safe in-person event. We expect more than 350 attendees to enjoy a fantastic evening of entertainment, fine food, and fellowship. Our Gala is the primary annual fundraiser dedicated to the support of our St. George community's vision to empower students with Wisdom, Courage and Faith. 

St. George is an independent nonprofit, co-educational learning community serving a diverse group of over 500 students, from PreK through Eighth grade.  We are known throughout Texas for promoting academic excellence within a nurturing Christian environment. We place a high value on creating an inclusive community of students, faculty, and families that welcomes all races and creeds. Furthermore, we provide for an economically diverse student body with 23% of our students receiving some form of financial aid. Your support is vital as we endeavor to maintain our quality programs and expand enrichment opportunities for the children of St. George. 

The Silent and Live Auctions are among the highlights of the Spring Fling Gala. Last year’s event raised over $215,000 in net proceeds. Money raised is used to enhance the student learning environment through development and STEM tools in the classroom, and contributions to St. Gorge’s new ICE lab; an engineering and innovation technology lab, as well as educational enrichment through music and art programs, and teacher directed grant funding to meet their unique classroom needs. Your donations and support of the Spring Fling Gala is essential to our success. 

Please consider partnering with us by contributing a product or service that best promotes your brand. Your donation will provide a marketing opportunity with our extended family of parents, church members, school leadership, alumni, friends, neighbors, and community associates.
