For over 70 years, Mater Dei has not only provided a value-based Catholic education, but also served as a leader in secondary education and set the standard for academic, athletic, emotional, and spiritual growth.  This powerful legacy has positioned us to now embark on an aggressive initiative aimed to preserve and advance our mission while strengthening our foundation.

In response to the strategic plan and with a commitment to serving future Mater Dei students and their families, we have received approval from the Most Reverend Michael J. McGovern, Bishop of Belleville, to proceed with a $4 million capital campaign.  This capital campaign, Rooted in Faith, Building for our Future, will be a vital step in securing the future of the Mater Dei tradition.

Therefore, we call on our Mater Dei community – alumni, parents, and friends – to join us as we enhance the student experience for current and future generations of Knights!
