The Technology Program
The Catholic Schools Office was awarded $275,000 to support the efforts of the Office of Technology. To date, more than 50 inner-city schools have been wired for technology, and more than $2 million has been awarded to schools in federal E-rate funding as a result of ongoing efforts.

Marketing Grants
Twenty grants totaling $71,000 were awarded to 20 individual schools for the first time this year. This support spread the good news in Catholic education through new brochures, local advertising campaigns, and even new signage.

Strategic Partnerships
CSF has also formed partnerships with several local agencies that serve many of the same students and communities, including the Boston Ballet, which hosted a CSF night at one of their May performances, and Facing History and Ourselves, which is working on a Social Studies curriculum with several schools, including the Pope John Paul II Catholic Academy.
