Keep the Falcons Soaring!

This year, we have set a goal of $39,000 for our “Keep the Falcons Soaring Challenge.” Your donations, at any level that feels comfortable for you, will directly and immediately enhance our students' experiences at St. Paul in a significant way.

At this year's Gala, we will focus on raising funds for our Integrated Technology Center/Media Center. As part of our strategic planning, we transformed our school’s former library into two dedicated spaces: a computer room and an adjacent media center. The “Keep the Falcons Soaring Challenge” aims to further enhance this area, making it an exciting and accessible place for all students to collaborate and utilize the latest technology.

Our goal for this year's challenge is to purchase 26 student workstations, each costing $1,500. This cost includes computers with cutting-edge technology, electrical work, and installation. This computer lab will serve every student, supporting classes such as Digital Literacy & Citizenship, Introduction to Programming, AP Computer Science A, AP Computer Principles, and Honors Statistics and Data Analytics.

The current lab has been in use since 2017 and needs a much-needed refresh. Your contribution to the “Keep the Falcons Soaring Challenge” will help us complete this vital part of our school’s strategic plan, ensuring a high-quality STEM education for all current and future St. Paul students for years to come. Thank you for your support!


 

This year we celebrated our Circle of Honor inductees

Monsignor Gary Simeone and Mr. Dean Kilbourne '80

At this year's Forever Falcons Gala we honored Monsignor Gary Simeone and Mr. Dean Kilbourne '80 as our 2025 Circle of Honor recipients. Learn more about each of these incredible gentlemen below.

Our Circle of Honor recipients are committed to Catholic education and to the students of St. Paul Catholic High School. They are deeply valued by all of the families they have touched and influenced over the years.  Our school community considers them a devoted and loyal friend, and their embodiment of personal sacrifice in support of the mission of our St. Paul community. We honor both as your names have been woven into the fabric of our proud legacy at St. Paul Catholic.

The Forever Falcons Gala is our largest fundraiser of the year, and we are thrilled to invite you to join us at the new Bristol Event Center on Saturday, March 8, 2025 at 6:00pm for this year’s festivities.

Our biggest fundraiser of the year brings together the entire St. Paul community – parents, alumni, and friends – for a wonderful evening of fellowship and philanthropy, all in support of our school’s mission: providing a faith-filled, comprehensive education to all of our students.

There are many ways to show your support outlined on the following pages, but here are just a few to consider:

  • Become a Forever Falcons Gala Sponsor! Showcase your business or family in our digital and printed program book. Congratulate your special student, give a shout out to an alum, or thank a beloved parent or teacher. 
  • Donate an item to our auction or raffle. (Electronics, wine & spirits, getaways, gift cards, outdoor recreational gear, or anything you might like to win!)
  • Spend an evening out at the Bristol Event Center! Invite your friends and join us for dinner and drinks, raffles, auctions, and entertainment. Experience firsthand the special community that makes it easy to call St. Paul home.
  • If you can’t join us in person, register to bid in our online auction, open to everyone!

Your generosity will not only help sustain the tradition of excellence at St. Paul Catholic High School, directly benefiting current students through the enrichment of our academic, athletic, and fine arts programs and improvement of classroom technology and campus security, but will also fund tuition assistance, allowing additional deserving students to join us. By participating, you become part of a legacy of giving that helps our young people grow in faith, character, and knowledge as they prepare for college and lifelong learning.

On behalf of our President, James Cooper, the Advancement Office, the Gala Committee, and the students, faculty and staff of St. Paul, we would like to thank you in advance for your generosity.

We look forward to enjoying the festivities with you at the Forever Falcons Gala in March!
