About


On Thursday, November 7, we’re asking you to join us for the St. Edmund's Academy Giving Day, a 24-hour fundraising campaign to inspire participation in annual giving from our community of students, families, faculty, staff, grandparents, alumni, and friends.

Our school is a place where academic excellence is nurtured, and is a community where kind and caring teachers help shape students of character. We believe in the power of education, and are committed to instilling values that guide our students as they become responsible, compassionate, and empathetic individuals. Gifts to The SEA Fund support our teachers, who make this possible; our program, which shapes our students’ learning; and our facility, that welcomes our students daily into warm and inspiring classrooms.

Join us TODAY and make a gift to The SEA Fund and/or a designation meaningful to you!

The SEA Fund supports essential aspects of our students' experience, including great teaching, faculty professional development, innovative curricula, and cutting-edge technology. It provides scholarships for our talented and diverse student body and helps care for our facilities. Help us reach our Giving Day goals:

  • 500 total donors
  • $125,000+ total dollars raised
  • 47 members of The 1947 Society contributing $47,000+

Who will be the first class to 100%?


This race is closer than Jalapeño Hannah and Sauerkraut Saul making their way around PNC Park! Will PreK/JrK edge out the competition with just one more donor or will 2nd grade make a move from behind to take home the glory? Now is your chance to help your class break through the ribbon first!
