$3.2 Million Needed

St. Sava Academy is raising funds to secure a permanent home by acquiring the St. Paul Lutheran Church and School property.

The $3.2 million target will cover the purchase price, laying the foundation for a state-of-the-art educational facility.

This investment will not only provide a stable, inspiring environment for our students but also strengthen community ties and ensure a lasting legacy for future generations.

Enrollment at St. Sava Academy begins at the preschool level and continues through eighth grade, welcoming families into a close‑knit learning community. Our small class sizes create a supportive environment where each child receives personal attention and meaningful guidance.
