Fund-A-Need 2024 - Upgrading School Lighting for a Brighter Future!

St. Benedict Catholic School is excited to announce a transformative project aimed at upgrading the lighting throughout our school building. This initiative not only promises to enhance the learning environment for our students but also brings about a positive environmental impact, health benefits, and cost savings for our community.

Environmental Benefits: The new lighting system will significantly reduce our school's carbon footprint by implementing energy-efficient LED lighting technology. LED lights consume up to 75% less energy than traditional lighting sources, resulting in substantial energy savings and a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.

Physical Benefits: The implementation of LED lighting offers numerous physical benefits for students, faculty, and staff. LED lights provide consistent, flicker-free illumination that reduces eye strain and fatigue, creating a more comfortable and conducive learning environment. Additionally, LED lights emit a natural, white light that closely resembles daylight, enhancing visibility and promoting alertness and productivity.

Cost Benefits: Investing in energy-efficient lighting represents a cost-effective solution for St. Benedict.  LED lighting has an extended lifespan compared to traditional lighting sources, resulting in reduced maintenance and replacement costs over time. Furthermore, the energy savings achieved through the use of LED lights translate into significant long-term financial savings for the school. By lowering energy consumption and operating expenses, we can allocate resources towards other educational priorities, enriching the overall learning experience for students.

The lighting upgrade project at St. Benedict exemplifies our commitment to sustainability, student well-being, and fiscal responsibility. By embracing energy-efficient LED lighting technology, we not only create a brighter, safer, and more inviting learning environment but also contribute to a greener and more sustainable future for our planet. Together, let us illuminate the path towards a brighter future for future generations of St. Benedict students!

Thank you for your consideration and support!

WELCOME TO ST. BENEDICT'S 2024 AUCTION!

 

This year’s theme is Night at the Disco! Here’s the skinny: eat, drink, bid, support our school! 

The St. Benedict Annual Auction is our most far out fundraiser. Last year, it raised $300K with the funds going to a much-needed auditorium makeover. Every penny from the auction goes back to St. Benedict—and our children! The auction has allowed our school to:

 

·        Enhanced building security as well as new bell and intercom system. 

·        Provide technology carts in each classroom.

·        Enhance our excellent curriculum.

·        Provide competitive salaries for our teachers.

·        Offer tuition assistance to families in need.

·        Build a new office for our school counselor.

·        Remodel the cafeteria and purchase new tables and chairs

·        And much more!

 

We welcome you, family, and friends to join us online for the silent auction on April 8-12, 2024 and for a slammin’ evening for the live auction on April 13, 2024 at the Ballard Elks.
