Spring 2015
Dear Friends,
We are pleased to invite you to be a part of our second annual gala fundraiser. Last year’s inaugural
event proved to be a fun and successful night for the high school, helping us reach our annual
fundraising goals in support of operations and tuition assistance for deserving students.
Frassati Catholic is now in its second academic year. At present, we have nearly 100 freshman
and sophomore students and we will add a grade in each of the next two years to become a full 9th to
12th grade campus. Our founding students have the great opportunity to help form this high school
and they are rising to that occasion as they work to establish a culture of excellence and joy that is
uniquely “Frassati Catholic.”
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 high school experience as full and rewarding as possible
by supporting the second annual Frassati Catholic Gala “Will We Build It?…Yes We Will!” Proceeds
from the gala go toward this year’s 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. Please support this fun and worthwhile event to be held on Saturday, May 9, 2015
on our campus.
Sincerely in Christ,
Sister John Paul, O.P.
Principal
