Let's enjoy our (rescheduled) end of year social outside on the school’s back fields this Thursday, June 9th, from 5-7pm! Bring your lawn chairs and your sweet tooth while enjoying music, snow cones, fellowship and fun! Pack a pen and your yearbook for your friends to sign! Let’s celebrate the last day of school with a cool treat!

Each quarter our middle school students take an elective class once a week. Examples of elective classes include: Photography, Architectural Modeling, Shakespeare for Kids, Bucket Drumming, Debate Class, Keyboarding, Physics in Flight, and Olympic Games.

For the 2022-2023 school year, we are looking for adults to volunteer to share their expertise or passion with our students. Classes will be held on Wednesday mornings for 8 week sessions. All instructors will need to be VIRTUS compliant which includes having a background check and taking a "Protecting God's Children" workshop. If you are interested in sharing your time and talent with our wonderful middle school students, please contact Mrs. Szoch at principal@fatherandrewwhite.org.

Let’s “Pave the Way for Kids to Play!” at Father Andrew White School! Find out details here https://fatherandrewwhite.org/annual-giving-campaign Thank you!!

Middle and High School students from St. Mary’s County public, private, and home schools, grades 6 through 12, are eligible to enter the Speech Contest, held Friday, September 23, 2022 at 2 pm in the Fair Auditorium.

There are two divisions: Junior (grades 6, 7, and 8) and Senior (grades 9, 10, 11, and 12). Each public, private, and homeschool group may be represented by one student, so school or group contests are encouraged to determine representatives. Depending on the number of entries; however, two students per division may be entered, so selecting runners up is encouraged.

Students may choose any topic considered interesting and appropriate to our family audience. Speeches are expected to be original and written by the contestant, although sponsors and advisors may offer suggestions. Each speech must be at least three but no more than five minutes. Speeches will be judged on content, organization, and delivery. First, second, and third place awards are given for each division.

High School and adult volunteers for judging, score keeping, and helping coordinate the contest are most cordially invited. Please contact the Chair if you’re interested or have questions.
