The SSO is a non-profit organization whose purpose is to organize volunteers for St. Jerome School and to sponsor and coordinate fundraising activities to supplement the school’s financial needs as defined by the Pastor and Principal. In order to keep tuition affordable for our families, the school relies heavily on fundraising by the SSO, which obtains funds each year through a wide variety of events and other initiatives that bring together families, faculty, friends and community. Funds raised are used to give our teachers the tools they need to create a rich learning environment, add and update technologies throughout the school, update and increase library resources, fund field trips and assemblies, provide music and art instruction, and offer after-school student care, among other benefits.
