Ways to Support

Our school exists as a mission of St. Stephen the Martyr Catholic Church and through the support from her generous parishioners. That generosity is further enhanced by our school family. We cannot do it without all of you. We thank everyone who supports our school through their time, talent, and treasure.

Explore the many opportunities to support our commitment to academic excellence.

Online Giving

Tuition covers about 50% of the cost to educate our children. The other 50% is funded by parishioner stewardship gifts and donations. Your contributions will help us meet operation expenses in several areas. We encourage families to set up an account with OSV Online Giving. Online Giving is a simple and easy way to support St. Stephen. If you aren't able to give financially, we understand. Please considering supporting St. Stephen the Martyr Catholic Church through your time and talent. There are several ways to get involved. Learn more at stephen.org/community.

Volunteer at St. Stephen's

Parent volunteers are needed throughout the school day and within extracurricular activities to enhance and enrich our students' school experience.
