GRANDPARENTS' DAY

One of our most cherished traditions at STVM is Grandparents’ Day, which returns on Tuesday, November 25. This special event celebrates the grandparents, family members, and special friends who play such an important role in the lives of our students.

Guests are invited to campus with doors opening at 10 a.m. Mass will begin at 10:30 a.m. in the LeBron James Arena, followed by a light reception in the Jack and Ann Haag Student Center. It’s a morning filled with smiles, laughter, and the connection of generations coming together.

This Ohio Scholarship Tax-Credit Program lets you “Turn Taxes into Tuition” by directing your tax dollars to our St. Vincent-St. Mary High School students.  The money will be used for tuition assistance for those students with the greatest need. This will help STVM meet its fundraising goals and keep tuition affordable. You don't have to have a student attending STVM to be eligible. All Ohio taxpayers can participate. 

How does it work? Make a donation to Angel Scholarship Fund, for which you may receive a 100% Ohio income tax credit of up to $750 ($1,500 if married filing jointly) against your 2025 state tax liability. These funds will be used to provide tuition assistance for Catholic school students, and you can direct the funds specifically to STVM. In other words, the state of Ohio allows you to "spend" some of the state income taxes (that you must pay anyway) to provide tuition assistance for STVM students. The Angel Scholarship Fund is a win-win-win for taxpayer donors, scholarship recipients, and our Catholic schools.
