Fall Fundraiser
Our Fall Fundraiser is a great way for parents to connect with our parent and faculty community. It is typically hosted at our school in October as a Trivia Night or game night. We love designing it around a theme and love for parent involvement. We offer various contests for best dressed and themed table decorations.

Dragon Giving Days
Dragon Giving Days is celebrated in November. It serves as a spirit and fundraising week for our school to showcase the St. Michael School of Clayton Difference. Students and faculty dress up in special themes such as twin-day, crazy socks, and TSMSOC spirit day. We host an all-school assembly and sometimes a dance party. Parents and community members pledge money to help our fundraising efforts throughout the week.

Dragon Gala
The Annual Dragon Gala is hosted at the end of January or beginning of February each year. We ask for parent volunteers to help us coordinate this event. Our parents and faculty enjoy participating in this up-scale event hosted off-site as a wonderful fundraiser and community builder. We feature a silent and live auction with one-of-a-kind experiences and gifts.

Annual Giving
Annual giving is an essential investment in our school and the future of your children. Annual giving bridges the gap between tuition and the true cost of educating each child at The St. Michael School of Clayton. Tuition funds cover only 75% of the school’s target budget.

Annual Fund gifts are put to immediate use for professional development programs, book fees, computers, classroom materials, building renovations, scholarships, field trips, Smart Boards, playground enhancements, a new kiln, a new van for learning journeys, science lab enhancements and a learning consultant. Gifts to the Annual Fund are essential for facilitating a state-of-the-art progressive educational program. Parents, faculty, Board of Trustees, friends, grandparents and alumni contribute and make an incredible impact on our school.

Our primary goal for the Annual Fund is to have 100% participation from our TSMSOC families, faculty and Board. Every gift counts and makes an impact. In addition to striving for 100% participation, we have set a goal for the 2020-2021 Annual Fund of raising $150,000. This will go directly to supporting our students and faculty as we continue to provide a Reggio-inspired learning environment, tailored to each student.
