The Horsemen Hustle Fund Drive

St. Michael’s High School continues to provide an exceptional, affordable, faith-based education that reflects the values and diversity of our community. As a private Lasallian Catholic college preparatory school, we are proud to remain one of the most affordable institutions of our kind in New Mexico—thanks to the support of parents, alumni, and friends like you.

To ensure we can continue offering a high-quality education to a diverse student body, I invite you to participate in our 1st Annual Horsemen Hustle Fund Drive, taking place from July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026.

This year marks 165 years since the founding of St. Michael’s High School. We have much to celebrate, from academic achievements and championship athletic seasons to the accomplishments of our graduates.

Why Give?

To keep our programs strong and our doors open to all deserving students, your generous donation will support the following priorities for the 2025–2026 school year:

  • 20% – Tuition Assistance
    Tuition assistance ensures that no qualified student is turned away for financial reasons. For the 2025-2026 school year our average award per student applicant was $4,473 meeting 74% of all student needs.
 
  • 25% – Capital Improvements
    This year’s facility focus is completing necessary repairs to the remaining sections of our school roof. These improvements are essential for providing a safe and effective learning environment.
 
  • 35% – Teacher and Staff Retention / Classroom Support
    Investing in our teachers is an investment in our students. By funding salaries, classroom materials, and professional development, we can continue attracting and retaining high-quality educators committed to our Lasallian mission.
 
  • 20% – Long-Term Reserve Fund
    St. Michael’s High School has an investment portfolio.  It is important that the School continue to build this portfolio to secure the long-term health of the School.  Money from this portfolio can only be accessed with Board of Trustee approval and is not part of the annual budget. The larger the portfolio, the more protected St. Michael’s will be in case of emergencies or unforeseen circumstances.
