Campaign for Campus Expansion, Renovation, and Endowment'

1
Campaign for Campus Expansion, Renovation, and
Endowment.

• Establishing St. Pius X for the next twenty-five
  years.

2
Why do we need a Capital Campaign?

• In the past two decades, St. Pius X has grown
  dramatically
• 750 to 1,000 students
• Faculty increased 150 percent
• We are now providing 147 academic courses
• Support 54 athletic teams plus 7th 8th grade
  programs
• gt90 of our students participate in
  extra-curriculars
• During the 80s and 90s, the Archdiocese funded
  major construction and renovation projects to
  accommodate this growth. No longer, however,
  will the Archdiocese provide such support for St.
  Pius needs. It is now our responsibility to
  take control of St. Pius future.

How did we decide on a plan?
With professional assistance and as part of the
2002 Strategic Planning process, a steering
committee composed of parents, alumni, faculty
and staff prepared a Master Campus Plan that
maximizes space, functionality, and flexibility
of our facilities while unifying the overall
appearance of the school. This plan will also
help to renew the entire community in which St.
Pius X exists. We believe this will not only
help us compete for students but will also give
back to our community for years to come. This
plan should set the direction for St. Pius X for
the next 25 years.
