A Message from the Academy President - Bill Barrett Dear St. Mary’s Academy Community, Welcome to the 2020 Gala, That ‘70s Gala! We are so excited to share this event with you in support of our wonderful school and community. I’d like to extend a special thank you to our Gala Chair, Andrea Morrissette. For the third year in a row, Andrea’s leadership and dedication to SMA has helped in making this event a reality. Thank you also to Rebecca Hommertzheim, our Co-Chair and future Gala Chair, for all of her hard work and support. In addition, I want to express my heartfelt thanks to all of our volunteers and donors, and our amazing Advancement Team, led by Charlie Arbogast, who will be retiring after twenty-three years of service to our school. This event would simply not be possible without the enormous contributions of so many individuals. Thank you!! Your donations support tuition assistance and program resources at St. Mary’s Academy. Nearly thirty percent of our students benefit from over $2 million in need based tuition assistance each year. Program resources are enhanced, based on the needs identified by our three school Principals and myself, thanks to the generosity of our Gala sponsors, donors and winning bidders! Thus we graciously encourage you to bid early and bid often. Although the theme of our Gala changes each year, taking the time to come together as a community is a constant and perhaps never more important than this year. We have been tested in a time of uncertainty, and the manner in which we have supported one another is a remarkable testament to the strength of our school. Whether we gather physically, as we have done in the past, or together as a virtual community, as we may do April 24, it is important that we take the time to celebrate and support the amazing things happening at St. Mary’s Academy. We are grateful for your generosity, as it ensures that we are able to continue to offer an outstanding educational experience for our students. Enjoy the Gala (in person or virtually), bid generously, raise your paddles, and thank you again for all you do to support St. Mary’s Academy!!
Warmest regards,
Bill Barrett Academy President
A Message from the Board of Trustees Chair - Jean Armstrong Dear Members of the St. Mary’s Academy Community, Welcome to That 70’s Gala! On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I want to thank you for supporting our Gala. This annual tradition gives us the opportunity to come together as a community (virtually or in person) and celebrate all of the exciting things happening at SMA. We are grateful for everyone that makes up our community - including parents past and present, grandparents, alumnae, faculty, staff and administration as well as the many friends of the Academy. Your generous financial support of the Gala benefits Tuition Assistance and Program Resources for our students and faculty. Last year’s Gala raised a record $388,000 and your generosity this year will enable us to continue to provide a high quality education with tuition assistance to approximately 30% of our students who would otherwise be unable to attend our wonderful school. The Board of Trustees and I would like to thank Andrea Morrissette, our Gala Chair, Rebecca Hommertzheim, Gala Co-Chair, Lea Frank, our Advancement Events Coordinator and their amazing team. Thanks also to the staff, donors and volunteers whose dedication and hard work will guarantee that this year’s Gala will once again be a tremendous success. I especially want to thank Charlie Arbogast, our Director of Advancement, for over 20 years of leadership and dedication to SMA-we will miss you and we would not be where we are today without you! Most of all, we thank you, our families, friends and sponsors for your support which makes it possible for us to look forward to a bright future while continuing the mission and core values established by the Sisters of Loretto over 155 years ago.
Have fun tonight!
Jean Armstrong Chair of the St. Mary’s Academy Board of Trustees

That ‘70s Gala Testimonial Mahlet Zegeye is a recent St. Mary’s Academy graduate from the Class of 2019. She began her academic journey in the first grade at SMA in 2007. During her time at SMA, she participated in Orchestra, the Mouse Mischief program, National Honor Society, and SMAbotics. “As a first generation student and immigrant, I did not realize nor believe I would get as far as I have. I am very grateful for the opportunity St. Mary’s Academy provided me. SMA took me into their family and provided me assistance, both financially and academically. St. Mary’s Academy helped me become the person I am today.” -Mahlet Zegeye
TUITION ASSISTANCE The majority of the money raised at the Gala supports the SMA Tuition Assistance Fund. In the 2019-2020 school year, SMA is providing nearly $2 million in tuition assistance to over 27% of our students, allowing us to maintain a diverse school community, representative of the larger world we live in and the diverse global workforce our students will enter.
