SCRIP is a way to earn money for the school and reduce your tuition at the same time. 50% of the profit you bring in goes to the school and 50% goes towards your tuition bill! All you have to do is shop where you usually shop using the SCRIP gift cards you purchase from the school. Simply fill out the order form and return it to St. Mary and your SCRIP cards will be delivered to the school within a week for you to pick up.

If your St. Mary experience played an important role in the development of your life, your values, your faith, you can help us continue to play this role for our current and future students by making a gift to St. Mary. Here are some ways:

Annual Fund--The gap between tuition income and balancing the budget is more than $750,000 annually. Each gift to the Annual Fund helps bridge that gap. Cash gifts as well as gifts of appreciated securities or stocks are accepted on an annual basis.

Matching Gifts--Corporations across the nation match gifts to schools, meaning your gift to St. Mary culd be doubled or tripled. If your employer has a matching gift program, complete the form and send it to St. Mary School System, 1243 Elmdale, Paducah, KY 42003.

Scholarship Funds--Many of our students receive some form of financial assistance. It is our philosophy to educate all qualified students who desire our Catholic-based education. Your support can be vital for a needy family.

Planned Options--Estate planning is necessary to ensure that your assets pass to your intended beneficiaries in the most efficient way possible. When making your plans, be sure to get the advice of a qualified estate planning professional. There are many ways you could include the St. Mary School System in your plans.
