•Talk Derby to Me: The school is currently collecting empty baskets and any Live or Silent Auction items for the Annual Auction & Gala Saturday, April 25.
•Statement from The Utah Fits All Scholarship Program: We have experienced remarkable growth, expanding from funding for just 4,000 students to now supporting 14,635 Utah children with an education that truly “fits.” The Utah Legislature has reinforced this momentum, appropriating an additional $20 million for the current scholarship year and another $20 million for the 2026/2027 year. These increases bring total program funding to $120 million — ensuring that thousands more Utah students will have access to educational options that help them thrive. With more scholarships available, UEFA encourages families to explore their options early and apply for the next enrollment period. Every child deserves an opportunity to learn in an environment that helps them reach their full potential - Utah Fits All makes that possible. All families attending a Utah Catholic school are eligible to apply for the Utah Fits All $8,000 Scholarship for the 2025-2026 school year. St. Olaf Catholic School has a seat for your child in Pre-K to 8th grade! TO APPLY
