2025-2026 Annual Honor Roll of Donors
Many of the things we all love most about St. Agnes Academy and St. Dominic School are directly driven by gifts to the Annual Fund. Your Annual Fund gift allows us to address our highest priorities, meet unforeseen challenges and seize opportunities as they arise because unrestricted dollars can go where they’re most needed.

Why Support the Annual Fund?
The Annual Fund is vital to sustaining the programs, people, and traditions that make St. Agnes Academy and St. Dominic School a truly exceptional community. The generosity of parents, grandparents, alumni, and friends ensures that our shared mission continues to thrive.
Annual Fund gifts provide unrestricted support, allowing the school to address its highest priorities, respond to unforeseen challenges, and seize new opportunities as they arise. Every gift has an immediate and meaningful impact on the educational experience of our STARS & SUNS.
Your support helps provide:
- Strong academic programs that challenge students to think critically and grow intellectually.
- Enriching athletic, arts, and extracurricular opportunities that build leadership, teamwork, and resilience.
- Exceptional faculty, staff, and coaches who mentor, guide, and inspire every student.
- A safe, innovative, and vibrant campus where students are known, supported, and transformed.
At St. Agnes Academy and St. Dominic School, your gift is more than a donation—it is an investment in character, potential, and future leadership. Together, we are forming young women and men of faith and purpose who are prepared to lead and serve.
Parent Giving
Each year, we strive for 100% parent participation in the Annual Fund. Last year, 84% of our families made a gift. Participation is just as important as the amount given—every gift, regardless of size, is a powerful demonstration of our community's commitment to our mission and our students.
When our community comes together to support the Annual Fund, we provide our school with the flexibility to invest where it matters most. We invite you to INVEST in SAA–SDS by making your Annual Fund gift today. Together, we can ensure every STARS & SUNS has the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive.

Alumnae/i Giving
The lifelong support of our alumnae and alumni helps ensure that St. Agnes Academy and St. Dominic School continue to thrive for future generations. Through their generosity, our graduates invest in the mission and traditions that shaped their own lives while creating new opportunities for today's STARS & SUNS.
Today, approximately 10% of our more than 4,000 living alumnae/i make a philanthropic gift to the school each year. Every gift—regardless of size—makes a meaningful difference.
You may direct your gift to the area that matters most to you, including academics, the arts, athletics, science, financial aid, or the Annual Fund. You may also make your gift in honor or memory of a favorite teacher, coach, classmate, or loved one.
"It is my hope that my Annual Fund participation will allow the SAA traditions of academic excellence and social responsibility to continue in our community. I hope that families who value this experience but may not otherwise be able to afford tuition can be assisted through the many programs supported by the Annual Fund."
— Denice Pian, SAA '78
For more information about alumnae/i giving, please contact Liz Barksdale, Associate Director of Development and Alumni Engagement,
