Celebrating Catholic Schools Week

Jesuit Academy students and staff celebrated Catholic Schools Week February 1 - 5.  Unfortunately due to weather and school being closed for two days, several activities were moved to the week of February 8. 

Activities included a visit from The Pancake Man for lunch, a visit from Wildlife Encounters with six different animals, all-school bowling, and a city-wide mass at St. Cecilia's for our 8th graders. 

National Catholic Schools Week is the annual celebration of Catholic education in the United States. The theme for Catholic Schools Week 2016 was “Catholic Schools: Communities of Faith, Knowledge and Service.” The week focuses on the value Catholic education provides to young people and its contributions to church, our communities and to the country.
