St. Mary’s intentionally limits its school fundraisers to four annual events each year, which are as much community building as they are fundraising. These events include North Texas Giving Day in September, the Run Run Rudolph 5K in December, Annual Casino Night (date varies), and a Clay Skeet Shoot in April.
St. Mary’s students are proud to be Tigers, and our mascot, Toby, periodically makes appearances at various school events! ❤️🐯💙 What is a St. Mary’s Tiger?
