Saints Peter and Paul Annual Fund Appeal
Students who receive a Catholic education are better equipped to persevere through life’s challenges. It is within the Catholic school environment that students are nurtured to become successful in navigating these challenges while simultaneously fulfilling the Church’s mission to bring a passion to their Catholic faith and freely sharing it with others.
Our 2022–2023 Annual Fund Appeal supports the Saints Peter and Paul Catholic School endowment fund. There are three endowments: Tuition Assistance, Teachers' Supplemental Income, and Capital Improvements. This year’s funds will be used to ensure the longevity of our Teachers’ Supplemental Income Plan. Our goal is to raise $120,000. Thanks to supporters like you, we believe it’s possible. Will you help us?
Great teachers are key in keeping our Catholic schools prevalent in our communities and a viable option for Preschool through 8th-grade education for families. We invite you to rally around our Saints Peter and Paul teachers to safeguard the SSPP Teachers’ Endowment Fund and honor our teachers for their dedication to the faithful work they do each day.
What is the Teachers’ Supplemental Income Plan?
The annual compensation of our teachers is set by the Diocese of Joliet Catholic Schools Office. There is a
significant gap in pay between our teachers’ diocesan Catholic school salaries and those of the local school
district. Our Teachers’ Endowment allows us to decrease this gap with a bonus based on their individual years of experience and education level. To illustrate, we are able to reduce the gap by approximately 8% for first-year teachers (bachelor's level education).
How does it impact our students now?
Funds raised through the Annual Appeal affords Saints Peter and Paul the ability to retain high-caliber teaching
staff and provide our students a rigorous faith-based education with personalized support.
Please prayerfully consider your ability to make a tax-deductible gift to this worthy cause today.
Thank you for supporting our parish school.
