Aquinas Families, Alumni, Business Community, & Friends,

​

As we embark on this year’s Aquinas Fund appeal, I am filled with gratitude
for the remarkable dedication and support that you, our school community,
have shown over the years. Together, we have built a thriving educational
environment that honors faith, academic excellence, and a commitment
to student growth. With your support, we have achieved unprecedented
milestones, most notably our eighth consecutive year of enrollment growth—
a testament to the strength and vitality of the Aquinas Catholic Schools. This
success is truly a reflection of the families, faculty, and friends who believe in
our mission and who, through their generosity, continue to help us flourish.

The Aquinas Fund is our school’s annual giving appeal, and it plays a crucial
role in supporting our vision for the future. This fund directly enhances the
Aquinas experience for our students and faculty, providing the resources
needed to grow and improve programs and facilities. By investing in the
Aquinas Fund, you are supporting the pillars that make our community
strong, vibrant, and accessible to families across the Coulee Region.
Your investment in the Aquinas Fund will open doors to more academic and
extracurricular opportunities that foster growth in our students, helping them
to become well-rounded, capable, and compassionate leaders. We believe
that by nurturing each student’s unique talents and instilling values rooted in
faith, we empower them to excel in all facets of life. From expanding arts and
athletics programs to supporting innovative STEM initiatives, the Aquinas
Fund directly impacts the quality of our students’ education and helps them
pursue their fullest potential.

Moreover, the Aquinas Fund strengthens our faculty and staff—those
dedicated individuals who bring our mission to life each day. To continue
attracting and retaining the very best teachers and support staff, we must
ensure competitive and fair compensation that reflects their invaluable
contribution to our community. Through your support, we can continue to
provide our students with outstanding educators who are passionate about
fostering a love of learning and faith.

Most importantly, your generosity to the Aquinas Fund helps keep Catholic
education accessible and affordable for all families who seek it. In today’s
world, providing a Catholic education is more critical than ever, as we aim
to shape students who will make a positive impact on society through lives
of service, integrity, and faith. With your help, we can continue to welcome
families from diverse backgrounds and maintain our commitment to
inclusivity and support for all students in the Coulee Region.

Please join us in supporting this year’s Aquinas Fund appeal. Your gift, no
matter the size, makes an incredible difference in the lives of our students,
faculty, and families. Together, we can build upon our legacy of excellence
and ensure that the next generation of Aquinas students has the opportunity
to grow in knowledge, faith, and character.

Thank you for your continued support and for being an essential part of our
Aquinas Catholic Schools family. May God bless you abundantly for your
generosity and commitment to Catholic education.

With gratitude,
