Summer Reading
We are in the process of revising our summer reading program for 6th-12th grades. It is a documented fact that reading is known to increase student achievement across all grade levels. We want our students to read for information but also for enjoyment. Therefore, for the summer of 2023, all students will be required to read an age appropriate book of their choice. On the first day of school in all 6th-12th grade English classes, the students will be required to write an essay in class on the book read.

Confirmation | 9th - 11th Grade
The Sacrament of Confirmation is the special outpouring of the Holy Spirit as once granted to the apostles on the day of Pentecost. Preparation for Confirmation should aim at leading the Christian toward a more intimate union with Christ and a more lively familiarity with the Holy Spirit in order to be more capable of assuming the apostolic responsibilities of Christian life.
As you may know, Bishop Deshotel has moved the age of confirmation to 8th grade. This move will require a time of transition. We will have to confirm multiple grade levels in the next two years in order to make the transition to 8th grade Confirmation. It's a big change. The transition plan we are implementing will take 2 years to reach our goal.
