Catholic Schools Week
As we kick off Catholic Schools Week, it is a moment to pause and truly celebrate the profound importance of Catholic education. Our community is undeniably blessed with the opportunity not only to delve into rigorous academics but also to deepen our understanding of our beloved faith in Jesus Christ. This shared blessing is our greatest treasure.
Throughout this week, we come together to celebrate the rich tapestry that is Catholic education. It's a world where our students not only gain knowledge but also nurture their spiritual growth. To our parents, students, and dedicated staff, each one of you plays a vital role in shaping this extraordinary community.
We wish everyone a week filled with kindness, compassion, hard work, and prayer. May the spirit of Catholic Schools Week illuminate our path, and may our shared commitment to faith and education continue to flourish. Please enjoy the letter below from Archbishop Thomas. Thank you.
Super Kids-Super Sharing Event
Last week, some of our students and staff had the privilege of attending the Super Kids-Super Sharing event at the Pearson Community Center. They personally delivered the items generously contributed by our community, actively engaged in the thank you ceremony, participated in field activities, and aided with collection efforts. We extend heartfelt gratitude to our Saint's community for your invaluable contributions to this event, exemplifying our collective commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of others. Thank you for your support and generosity!
