Office of Institutional Advancement
To ensure that the Franciscan vision of education remains as holistic today as it was more than 78 years ago, Roger Bacon High School depends on contributions from members of our community. Roger Bacon’s Office of Institutional Advancement is dedicated to building relationships that help market the school and augment its operating budget. The Office of Institutional Advancement is responsible for raising annual and major gift funding for tuition assistance, faculty enhancement, technology, and facilities, as well as building the school’s endowment, which positions the school’s future success in shaping generations of men and women in the Franciscan tradition.
The Office of Institutional Advancement includes several departments:
- Alumni Relations
- Marketing and Communications
- Recruitment and Retention
- The Annual Fund Drive, capital campaign efforts and other special fundraising initiatives as directed by the President
- Special Events such as the President/Principal Reception, the Evening for Excellence dinner auction, RB and OLA Alumni Golf Outings and various reunion celebrations for Roger Bacon and OLA graduates
