The month of January ushers in the celebration of Catholic Schools Week, a national celebration of Catholic education. For a week we will gather in unity to share knowledge, enjoy each other’s company, and honor those who help our school to provide the academic excellence and spiritual values that make it such a special place.
Throughout the week there are many events and activities planned for our students and their families. Parens are invited to have lunch with their children in the school cafeteria. Some days, "celebrity readers" are scheduled to read a special story to a class. There are special assemblies being held as well as special treats provided to the children. Please check the following Calendar of Events to see what the week holds in store for our students.
