Fall Festival - Chaired by Susan Nichols
Annual Auction - Chaired by Dr. Mary O�Connor
Scrip - Run by Kim Newton

Other income is received from miscellaneous sources, such as our restaurant nights and Target REDCARD registration.

Expenses:

Due to your fundraising efforts the PTG is able to provide the school $80,000 each year, which goes directly into the general budget and makes up the difference between tuition charged and the actual cost to educate a child at St. Didacus.
Other money is spent on hospitality events such as:

Graduation ceremonies for Preschool, Kindergarten & 8th Grade
Grandparents' Day
New Parent Orientation
Monthly Teacher Appreciation Luncheons
