What St Paul's School does
Mission
St. Paul's school is a fully residential academic community. In educating students to build purposeful lives in service to the greater good, st. Paul's school engages young people in a diverse, inclusive, and ethical community, dedicated to the pursuit of (see schedule o) excellence in character and scholarship and inspired by the beauty and spirit of our millville home.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
St. Paul's school's primary program service is the education of students in grade 9 through 12, in a coeducational fully residential school environment. The school strives to be an inclusive, equitable, and richly diverse community, one that is committed to ensuring equal access to opportunities, as well as promoting individual growth through learning about the self and the perspectives and experience of others. The concentrated academic work done in collaboration by the students and faculty at st. Paul's school is the hallmark of our academic program. Through the school's rigorous academic standards, we encourage our motivated students to attain the highest levels of scholarship and intellectual growth and development.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $853M to $984M (+15%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
12% of ST PAUL'S SCHOOL’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (14% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 56 funders to 86 funders, grant income rose $2.1M → $3.8M.
38 of 191 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 52% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of ST PAUL'S SCHOOL’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 191 funders by total. Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
ST PAUL'S SCHOOL has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 26% of grant income, and it takes 6 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 6 funders to its left
56% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund ST PAUL'S SCHOOL.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 40% · 2018 25% · 2019 28% · 2020 30% · 2021 30% · 2022 35% · 2023 41% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
51% of ST PAUL'S SCHOOL's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 72% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
52% of ST PAUL'S SCHOOL's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $15M that is directly attributable, 100% of it comes from funders outside New Hampshire, across 34 states.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $16M arriving through sponsors registered in 25 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
