REITZ MEMORIAL HIGH SCHOOL was founded on the mission to educate all students to their highest potential by developing religious values, providing excellence in education, and fostering a commitment to service. For 95 years, our school has educated young men and women to become spiritual, intelligent, and socially conscious individuals. To this day, this remains our com- mitment to our current students and generations to come. Tuition at RMHS only covers 63% of the costs required to edu- cate each student. This makes the Memorial Annual Campaign an essential aspect in the advancement of our school. Contributions to the campaign allow us to provide tuition assistance, purchase necessary classroom resources, improve campus, and much more. Currently we are 35% of the way to our goal of $350,000, we hope you will help us reach our goal by donating today.

HOW TO DONATE: • Use the enclosed envelope on page 15 and mail directly to Reitz Memorial High School • Donate online at reitzmemorial.org/mac • Donate over the phone by contacting our Director of Advancement Maria Quinton at 812-303-0006
