Family Messenger

Over the weekend many of our 8th graders took the High School Placement Test. Please keep them in your prayers as they proceed with the high school admissions process. Our 2nd graders, along with students from Incarnation Church’s Religious Education Program, participated in a retreat with their parents as they prepare for the sacrament of Reconciliation. Please keep these children in your prayers as well.

This week is a time to celebrate! We join with other Catholic Schools across the nation in celebrating Catholic education. The theme “Catholic Schools Light the Way” focuses on the leadership that Catholic schools provide.

Please see the schedule of activities below. Encourage friends and neighbors who may be considering a Catholic education for their children to visit us on Sunday at our Open House.
