St. Paul's School for Girls announced this week that it has received $1 million from an anonymous donor, which is the largest gift in the Brooklandville private school's 50-year history. The funds will become part of the school's endowment and be used for financial aid. The school is about to start a multimillion-dollar endowment fund campaign. "This family's generosity strengthens the SPSG community by providing the resources needed to continue to support girls from throughout the Baltimore area who otherwise would not have access to the SPSG experience," head of school Monica Gillespie said in a news release.
