In this way, the Teachers’ Benefit Fund, Schoology, Academic Competitions, various school improvements, etc., may be provided.

Our main, obligatory, fundraisers are the May Festival (minimum of 1 book of tickets per child enrolled and 1 hour per child volunteer time commitment) and the Gift Gathering for the Fall Auction/Dinner. If you opt out of donating a gift there is a $125.00 commitment.

Other optional opportunities to build community spirit will be provided throughout the year.

It is important to note that FACTS Management Company and Saint Jeanne's never see your bank account nor have any direct access to your account. State and federal laws require such information to be completely confidential. 
2. Credit Cards - FACTS accepts the following credit cards: Discover, American Express, Visa and MasterCard.
