Tuition covers most of the day-to-day expenses of a private, independent school like Pallotti. In order to remain competitive with other schools in the area, Pallotti strives to keep tuition from rising too high. Most of the time, tuition does not cover the cost of educating each of our students. Contributions to the Pallotti Fund enable the school to bridge this gap and keep tuition low enough to remain affordable to most families. Additionally, gifts to the Pallotti Fund allow the school to “go the extra mile” in providing the resources necessary to becoming a true school of excellence!

Pallotti offers young men and women the best of both worlds. We are large enough to boast a wide-ranging curriculum, cutting edge technology, and a diverse selection of extracurricular activities. We are also small enough that each student is treated as an individual, possessing unique talents and abilities. We also offer spiritually enriching retreats and service opportunities, and over 20 interscholastic sports teams. Gifts to The Pallotti Fund help make all of this possible. Each gift—no matter the amount—counts, and your participation is essential.
This award established in 2013 by Peter and Susan Basile (parents of the late Ryan Basile, class of 2013) is awarded to a senior student who has demonstrated dedication, commitment, and perseverance in the pursuit of academic achievement. It is awarded in hopes that the recipient will continue to take risks in learning after graduating from St. Vincent Pallotti High School. The award is given in honor of Mr. Saunders J. Allen in recognition of his ability to inspire students and to see potential in those who may not see it in themselves.
This scholarship is offered in memory of Jeanine Everhart and Gloria Graham, both from the class of 1987, who died tragically in an automobile accident in the fall of their senior year. Each year, members of the senior class select one of their peers, someone who they feel best demonstrates acceptance of all people, to receive the scholarship.
After 36 years of loving and devoted service to St. Vincent Pallotti High School -- the last 13 as our beloved President/Principal, Mr. Steve Edmonds stepped down at the end of the 2010-11 school year. New buildings have been built, innovative programs have been instituted, and much progress has taken place under his stewardship, but Mr. Edmonds' legacy is clear: His genuine and gentle love for the young men and women of Pallotti, which will continue to inspire us all.
Please help us honor this very special man by making a contribution to the Steve Edmonds Scholarship Fund. Our goal is to collect enough funding to be able to permanently endow this already existing scholarship as yet another ongoing legacy of Mr. Edmonds' character and selflessness. Nothing would please him more!
The intent of this scholarship is to reward the male or female senior Pallotti athlete that epitomizes hard work, perseverance, sportsmanship and leadership. This award was established to celebrate the life of Thomas G. Linsenmeyer, an exceptional athlete in the Class of 2001. This honor is awarded to one male and one female athlete who inspired and achieved beyond expected goals through desire and dedication.
This scholarship is two separate $500 scholarships that will be given annually to St. Vincent Pallotti High School students towards their tuition; one to a male student and one to a female student. It is given in loving memory of a lifetime of community service and volunteerism by Dick Howard.
This scholarship was established in the memory of Daniel Sung Walser a graduate of Class of 2002. Daniel was a student athlete who participated in soccer, wrestling, lacrosse, and swimming during his four years at Pallotti. Daniel was a confident, sincere, and genuine young man who captured the hearts of young and old though his love of life, regard for humankind, and ability to ponder the “big picture.” He truly was a “rare find” as he described himself in his personal essay submitted for application to enter St. Vincent Pallotti High School. This scholarship seeks to honor student athletes who embody the same character and integrity as Daniel.
The Warren Hall Memorial Scholarship was established in 2011, in memory of Warren Hall, Varsity Football coach from 1984 – 2002. The leadership, energy, knowledge and passion for football that "Coach Coolness" exhibited left a lasting impression on his players. Coach Hall cherished his association with the Pallotti community and took great pride in seeing his players develop as athletes on the field, and as fine and respectable individuals off the field.
The Warren Hall Memorial Scholarship will honor one Pallotti student athlete each year who radiates positivity through his/her leadership, teamwork, sportsmanship and compassion. Through each scholarship recipient, the “cool” will live on.
