Teenagers are always interested in food and fun!
PIZZA: Your $300 donation can be specified to treat the entire St. Michael’s student body to a pizza dinner. Che bella!
WEEKEND: While most of the students return home each weekend, four to six young men spend their free weekends at school. On Saturday this means going out with chaperones to enjoy one of the many wholesome amusements available in Southern California. Your $300 donation can be specified to make a memorable weekend for these students.
On our secure donation form, please specify whether your $300 donation is to go towards PIZZA or WEEKEND.
It’s tough to earn an A!
This school requires a lot from its students, since all of them are preparing to enter college. However, college-preparatory courses often have college textbook price tags. Financial aid does help with room, board, and tuition. It does not help cover the cost of the textbooks which average $650 per student this year. Every time donations reach $650, another needy student has the textbooks he needs to work for his A.
On our secure donation form, please specify that your $650 donation is to go towards TEXTBOOKS.
Learning Outside the Box!
As a boarding school, learning extends far beyond the classroom doors. Those who can participate are limited to those who can afford the extra out-of-pocket costs.
At the conclusion of their sophomore year, students fly to Philadelphia and over five days serve the urban poor as well as visit sites of importance to American history – a subject which they formally study as juniors. Each student’s expenses average $600.
In the middle of their junior year, young men and some of their dads travel to Rome, Italy for a ten-day extravaganza of Italian religion, language, art, and culture. One day is an optional side-trip to Florence, the birthplace of the Renaissance. Underwriting one student’s travel to Rome is $3,000. Giving the chance for a student to take the train up to see Florence is $200.
On our secure donation form, please specify the city:
• Philadelphia: $600
• Rome: $3,000
• Florence: $200

Athletics at St. Michael’s is a harmonious extension of the spirit that animates the whole school. Thus, the sports program develops a healthy and well-balanced youth who gives his best effort to help a cause bigger than himself.

On our secure donation form, please specify the sport:
• Football: $500
• Cross Country: $150
• Soccer: $270
• Baseball: $270
There are levels of opportunities to honor the person and values of a loved one while promoting the educational mission of St. Michael’s for bright and talented young men. Contact the Development Office for more details.
