GUARDIAN STRIDE
Help us hit our school goal of raising $65,000 - an average of $135/student! Since tuition alone doesn't fully cover the cost of a Catholic education, donations to the Guardian Stride help bridge this gap and directly support our students, faculty and programs.
As part of our Homecoming Week festivities, students and faculty carry on the longstanding tradition of Archbishop O'Hara High School by participating in a fun, 30-minute "Stride" around campus. This student-driven fundraiser is a chance for the whole school to come together to celebrate SMA. No buying or selling required, and no laps to count. Just inviting others to support the mission of St. Michael.
