Booster Club

The Saint Stanislaus Booster Club is committed to providing the necessary resources to allow Saint Stanislaus’s more than 300 plus student-athletes to pursue excellence in the classroom, in competition, and in the community. 

The Booster Club has a long and cherished history at Saint Stanislaus. It began as the Parents’ Club in 1932. The school needed funds for athletics and changed the name to the Sidelines Club in 1936. Then-head coach Harry “Wop” Glover (SSC ’28) and Brother William helped to organize the Sidelines Club with the assistance of benefactor Walter J. Gex, Jr. (SSC ’24), benefactor Milton A “Hippo” Phillips, Sr. (SSC ’19), coach Grady Perkins, and coach John “Baby Grand” Scafide (SSC ’28). During the 1935 season, Gex installed the stadium’s first light in order to play night games. The club later installed new bleachers and a scoreboard to make the stadium the best in the state. The school reorganized the club as the Rock-A-Chaw Athletic Booster Club in 1999.

As we look to the future, we strive to maintain excellence both on the athletic field and in the classroom. Saint Stanislaus must continue to provide student-athletes with the resources they need to achieve these goals.   

When your son becomes a Rock-A-Chaw, so do you! With tuition covering only approximately 70% of our operating costs, we rely on a strong alumni base and dedicated families to help us deliver an outstanding educational and athletic experience for all student-athletes, including yours.   

The size of your gift is a personal decision – the important part is your participation. Parents give anywhere from $100, $1,000 to $10,000+, and participation at every level is needed and appreciated.
