Guardian Angel Tuition Assistance (GATA)

Making a difference by providing the precious gift of a Catholic Education


Since 1901, our mission at Santa Clara High School has been to proclaim the Gospel message of Jesus Christ through the tradition and teachings of the Roman Catholic Church. Every child deserves to be educated in a faith-centered environment and tuition costs should not be a deterrent.  We are grateful to the many individuals who have participated in our Guardian Angel Tuition Assistance (GATA), helping deserving young adults to realize their dream of a Catholic, college-preparatory education that will help them develop spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, and socially.  Contributions toward tuition in any amount are welcome and can honor a loved one.


  • Investments in this fund will provide tuition assistance to students whose families are experiencing financial need.
  • Over 80% of our students need some form of financial assistance.
  • Donations are tax-deductible to the extent provided by law.  Always consult your tax professional.
  • Santa Clara High School, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) organization

Please complete the Guardian Angel Tuition Assistance (GATA) Financial Agreement on the next page to initiate your support of our deserving students and families.  Completed forms should be turned in to the Advancement Office or emailed to [email protected].  If you would like to set up a meeting or have any questions, please contact the Advancement Associate at (805) 483-9502 ext. 160.


Your contribution to our school community is a testament to the value of our strong Catholic Education and we are tremendously grateful for your generosity.
