Funding Priorities
To ensure the long-term financial strength of the school, while also helping to meet annual operational costs, the boards of the Foundation and the Regina Board of Education concur on these funding priorities.
- Teacher Endowment Fund – Quality education comes at the hands of quality educators. Regina teachers make a personal sacrifice to teach at a Catholic school. The teacher endowment fund helps to guarantee a just salary for our dedicated teachers.
- Tuition Assistance Endowment Fund – Currently, 25% of Regina families receive some type of tuition assistance. The Tuition Assistance Endowment fund helps ensure tuition assistance for K-12 students who are in financial need. This fund helps make certain Regina remains a Catholic school where all who choose to attend can regardless of finances.
- Regina General Endowment Fund – This fund is essential to the long-term financial health of Regina. The Regina Board of Education assesses the greatest need and the resulting best us of the annual payout from this fund.
