THE CHALLENGE
A vibrant educational institution known for its talented students, dedicated faculty and supportive parents, Cascia Hall Preparatory School in Tulsa, Oklahoma, faced significant limitations due to outdated facilities that hindered its ability to meet modern educational demands. The science classrooms, built over 40 years ago, were inadequate for contemporary technological advancements. The robotics program and science research team struggled with inadequate space, while health and wellness areas were insufficient to support all students effectively. Additionally, campus ministry offices were located in a basement, far from the heart of student activity, impacting their accessibility and visibility. The need for expanded and modernized facilities to support intellectual, physical and spiritual development was critical.
THE VISION
The school launched a campaign with the goal of transforming its campus to better support its educational mission and foster community. The campaign goals included:
- Developing new science classrooms and a BSL2 lab to provide cutting-edge educational experiences and align with contemporary curriculum standards.
- Creating dedicated areas for robotics and science research, ensuring that students have appropriate spaces for building, testing, and presenting their projects.
- Expanding and upgrading health and wellness facilities to support physical activity and well-being for all students.
- Relocating campus ministry offices to a central location.
- Renovating the Upper School gym lobby and dining hall.
- Creating new gathering spaces to enhance student life and unity.
THE SOLUTION
School leadership partnered with the Steier Group for the capital campaign. The Steier model of comprehensive campaign management with a full array of campaign support helped Cascia Hall find success. The Talent Thrives with Opportunity Capital Campaign successfully addressed the pressing fundraising need of the school to modernize and expand its facilities. The transformative upgrades will enhance the school’s ability to deliver a cutting-edge education, and also strengthen the sense of community and support for students’ intellectual, physical, and spiritual growth. The community raised more than $9.6 million to achieve these important goals.
“I would not hesitate to use TSG again in future endeavors, as needed. Their service to faith-based, and specifically Catholic, apostolates is a wonderful contribution to the work of the Church.”
