What is the 'Marathon Day of Service'? 

An annual tradition at Carondelet, our "Marathon Day of Service" is one of three major fundraisers that contribute towards the school's operating budget. The money raised helps us keep tuition affordable, maintain small class sizes, and offer the highest level of academic excellence in a faith-based, nurturing environment. 

Pledges – in exchange for pledge donations, students gather for a school-organized Day of Service on Friday, October 30.  

Students can begin collecting pledges Tuesday, October 6 following our all-school kick-off. Students will be given a pledge envelope to keep track of their pledge donations. Envelopes and pledges will be tallied each Tuesday. (see dates below)

Grandparents, parents, friends and neighbors are your students best “prospects” when seeking pledges.
