Saint Marguerite Catholic School Mission Statement Jesus calls us to teach the children how to be Disciples of Christ who thirst for knowledge and are active believers who strive to improve themselves and their world. St. Marguerite Catholic School joyfully announces that we have received a very generous grant from Mr. Sam Skaggs.  This grant will enable us to complete construction and furnish Phase I of the new building.  Mr. Skaggs has graciously bestowed an additional grant to allow us to design, construct, and furnish Phase II, as well as additional space for a library and science lab (Phase III).  We are so grateful for this overwhelming blessing and for the faith in our Parish and School Communities that a grant of this kind expresses.  We, the Parish and School need to complete our pledged support to the building and continue to support the building program; however, this grant will enable us to finish so many years sooner than otherwise possible.  We have one year remaining on our Capital Campaign and need to raise at least $250,000 to finish Phase I and fulfill our pledges to the new building.  With the help of Mr. Skaggs this dream of a complete school and education center is now a reality.  The Diocese has shown its support for us by approving this grant and validating that we, the Parish and School Communities can make this vision come to life.  We, the Parish and School are united in our mission to provide the children of Tooele with the best Catholic Education possible.  We ask that you join us in thanking Mr. Skaggs for his incredible generosity.
