2 Spring 2017 Dear Friend, We are pleased to invite you to be a part of our fourth annual gala fundraiser. Last year s event proved to be a fun and successful night for the high school, helping us reach our annual fundraising goals in support of general operations and tuition assistance. Frassati Catholic, now in its fourth academic year, is a full 9 th 12 th grade campus with 230 students. We are anticipating the excitement of our first graduation in the spring when we will celebrate the achievements of our founding class. At Frassati Catholic, we offer the young people of north Houston a co-educational high school, rooted in the Catholic faith, with college preparatory and honors courses. Our focus on excellence as a human person encourages our students to mature intellectually, spiritually, and physically. Inspired by our patron, Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati, graduates of Frassati Catholic will have the tools to be true moral, intellectual, and civic leaders in our society. We ask for your help in making their student experience as full and rewarding as possible by supporting our fourth annual gala fundraiser. Proceeds go to the Frassati Catholic Giving Program, which supports the ongoing operations of the high school, bridges the gap between tuition and the actual cost of education, and helps Frassati Catholic provide excellent Catholic education for its students. Our fundraiser will not be successful without the help of community partners who understand the importance of quality high school education. Please support this fun and worthwhile event, being held on Saturday, April 29, 2017, with a sponsorship; a donation for the auctions, balloon pop, or other component of the gala; or a purchase of a table or tickets. Thank you. Sincerely in Christ, Sister John Paul, O.P. Principal
